THE 1961 LATOUR
Château Latour--Vintage 1961
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Levels: one bottom neck, seven top shoulder, three upper shoulder, one upper mid shoulder; six lightly corroded capsules, four slight signs of old seepage, two tissue stained labels, one bin soiled label, lightly wrinkled and lightly bin soiled labels, "The Calvert Wine Shop" strip labels
"Oh, boy. Latour '61! Supremely elegant, still youthful and powerful. The wine has a great complexity on the nose that brings in dark fruit, rich, savory notes, and a more developed side with truffle, cigar box and leathery notes all harmonizing. On the palate the wine is still tannic and forceful, with fresh acidity, great extract and reserves of fruit that lead to an amazingly long finish. Marvelous." CC, At a Christie's dinner at Lung King Heen, Hong Kong, May 2011
