Château Latour--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Not in original wooden case. Eight slightly corroded capsules. Five Berry Bros. & Rudd slip labels. Slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: five top, four upper, two mid/upper and one mid-shoulder
Tasting note: Glorious. It just goes from strength to strength, showing no signs of flagging, its opacity merely prefacing its beautifully developed bouquet, sweetness, richness, excellent flavour and perfect balance - perfect enough to keep on maturing for another quarter century. Last noted June 2007 ****(**) (6 stars!) M.B.
