The superb 1992 Puligny-Montrachet-Les Referts possesses a bacon fat, smoky, oaky nose intertwined with sweet, perfumed aromas of honeyed apples, melons, and oranges. The wine reveals great richness and intensity, as well as full body, superb extraction and glycerin, and a long, rich finish. However, its low acidity suggests it should be drunk during its first 5-6 years of life. This famous negociant/vineyard owner, founded in 1797, has made very fine 1992s. The big wines, such as the top premier crus and grand crus, spend a year in 100% new oak and have considerable lees contact for the first 7-8 months, although there is no stirring, or so-called "batonage" practiced. Latour's 1992s will be released in late fall, 1993. Louis Latour is represented by different importers in each state.
