Château Latour--Vintage 1970
12 bottles per lot
Château Latour--Vintage 1970 Pauillac, 1er cru classé In original wooden case, original tissues. Corroded capsules. Levels: seven top, four upper, one mid/upper-shoulder Tasting note: An immensely impressive wine. Even making allowances for its tannic grip, it refuses to budge. Tasted and drunk - more liked chewed - in every conceivable circumstance. One can just detect a touch of maturity; its nose is almost impossible to describe because it hardly shows its head above the parapet. It needs days decanting time and hours in the glass. Most recently: classic, old cedar bouquet; sweet, full bodied, harmonious, masked tannin. Many more years in hand. Last tasted June 2007 **** (*) M.B. 12 bottles per lot
