CHATEAU LATOUR 1975 |

Château Latour 1975 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 1t/hs, 3hs, very slightly soiled labels, slightly nicked and corroded capsules, 1 slightly sunken corkIn 2017 and from double magnum. Served in big Burgundy ballons which was rather a good idea. Huge fruit from the start, now more cherry than blackcurrant and with great impact. Real First Growth depth, inimitable. History in the glass - a wine of its epoch and an utterly memorable one too. Multi-layered and complex, with very exciting flavours acting as an undercurrent and finishing on a sweet aniseed note.
