Lot 674

1 bottle Chateau Latour, Premier Grand Cru Classé, Pauillac, France, 1961 , 0,75 l, upper mid shoulder. 'Critic tasting note: (1961 vintage) "That's not a wine, that's 1961 Latour, which means this is in a class all by itself. The wine is incredibly powerful, dense, and intense. There is so much concentration here, your palate is coated with its layers of rocks, stones, gravel, spice, earth, and chewy, red fruits. There is a refined quality to the waves of black and red currants that you cannot find in other wines. The finish starts strong and amazingly, it builds, expands and adds complexities as it lingers, long after the wine has left the glass. 100 Points" - 100/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider'
