CHATEAU LATOUR 1959 |

Château Latour 1959 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 1bn, 1vts, 2ts, 2t/hs, bin soiled labels, US strip partially covering base of label, slightly corroded capsules, 1 capsule cut to reveal fully branded cork, purchased from 'The Classic Cellar From A Great American Collector IX' at Sotheby's Hong Kong on 31 March 2012In 2015, this was the star of a very starry evening, oozing class, ripeness and sheer volume. Rich and cedary, this was a magnificent bottle and a truly exciting wine, with vinosity, dimension and myriad flavours firing on all cylinders. Just try that texture too - it may be a food, not a wine. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 966 hbs (sc)Estimates are per lot
