Chateau Latour 1982 Chateau Latour 1982 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe u. 4bn, 2vts, 4ts, 2 levels into neck, original tissues, 1 nicked label, otherwise excellent appearance Rich, fabulous nose, so cedary. Great cedary fruit on the palate. Still almost one-dimensional. This gets sweeter and sweeter. Superb, rich wine. In 2008 from an Imperial, it was absolutely stunning, sweeping all before it - the best I have ever had. An incredible treat. In 2011, from bottle, this was just so incisive and youthful, dense and powerful. And, post-sale in New York in 2011, from double magnum, an immensely spicy, aromatic bouquet leads to that thick, enveloping, total succulence of Latour 1982. So sweet and ripe. Massive, yet gentle, wine that plumbs the depths of sensory perception. Serena Sutcliffe, MW See illustration Lot 6 12 bts (owc) per lot: USD 15000-20000 Quantity: 1
