CHATEAU LATOUR 1964 |

Château Latour 1964 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 1ts, 1hs, bin-soiled labels, 1 loose label re-adhered with adhesive, soiled and corroded capsules, 1 slightly raised corkLast drunk (two times!) in 2011 from a fabulous English country cellar. Lucky me. A bouquet that is sweet, mature and yet fresh, with rosy elements. So spicy, so soft and so luscious on the palate. Very up-front and blushingly beautiful. Melts in the mouth. Not the structure of the 1966 but much more charm. Pure, classy Latour maturity. Almost a toffee gentleness at the end. Oh boy! Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 92+2 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
