CHATEAU LATOUR 1964 |

Château Latour 1964 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 3vts, 6ts, from different importers, 3 slightly bin soiled labels, 2 bin soiled labels, 4 bin soiled and damp stained labelsLast 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+9 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
