CHATEAU LATOUR 1959 |

Château Latour 1959 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 5ts, 3ms, wrinkled, slightly scuffed, and stained labels, scuffed and corroded capsules, 5 signs of seepage, slightly raised corks, 8 bottles packed in a 12-bottle original wooden case missing lidIn 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 968 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
