Château Latour 1970 (1 BT)

Château Latour 1970

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Label damp affected and stained, capsules scuffed, soiled and slightly worn

On New Year's Eve 2022 and from our own stock, an incredibly vivacious, cedary/leathery /mysterious bouquet - and amazingly fresh too. Then watch for that touch of woodsmoke. Velvet black liquorice on the palate, gummy and full of glycerol - only Latour on the Left Bank reached these heights in 1970. It took time....but now we have this, in all its splendour, power and succulence. Dig deep into it and feel the sheer majesty of this wine. And, as 2025 drew to a close, we drank deep of another bottle - all aromatic black chocolate and spices, full, luscious and noble. This is a wine of classic, epochal character and it is unforgettable. - Serena Sutcliffe, MW

2019年品嚐，之前從未試過如此出色的一瓶（出自我們的窖藏，1970年代購入，儲存條件良好）。酒液色澤迷人，散發波亞克產區一級酒莊的黑加崙子芳香，與木桐堡有幾分相似。卡本納葡萄香氣四溢，產地的風土氣息洶湧而至。口感精彩絕倫，澎湃多汁，果香豐沛，極具窖藏潛力。收結帶有一股不可思議的可可粉香，令人欲斷難捨。現時半途小試牛刀已一鳴驚人，日後繼續陳年必成酒中巨擘。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
