Description

Château Latour 1959

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u.1vts, 1ts, 2t/hs, 1h/ms, 4 damp-stained labels, 1 heavily damp-stained label, 1 wine-stained label, 1 nicked label, slight signs of old seepage, corroded capsules, 1 torn capsule

In 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
