"old" wine that is showing young

Opened a bottle of 1994 Latour yesterday... even though most "experts" say this wine is around its peak, it showed very young and still rather tight/austere, especially on the palate. The nose was amazing, super complex and multidimensional, fully living up to the pedigree of this great wine. While 94 is not a stellar vintage, this wine was still showing much of what makes the Medoc Terroir so famous.... rated 93/100 points.... ^
