CHATEAU LATOUR 1982 |

Château Latour 1982 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 3bn, 3vts, 4ts, 2 labels slightly damp stained, rest damp stained and slightly wrinkled, capsules slightly worn and slightly corroded, 2 slightly damaged around collar, 5 corks slightly depressed, tissue wrapped, non-original lidPost-sale in New York in 2011, from double magnum, an immensely spicy, aromatic bouquet led to that thick, enveloping, total succulence of Latour 1982. So sweet and ripe. Massive, yet gentle, wine that plumbs the depths of sensory perception. In 2013, again from this lovely large format, absolutely stunning. And from bottle, just so classy and aristocratic, rich and oozing structure and tannins that are now soft without losing any of their great impact. One of the all-time greats.
