A SUPERB PRIVATE COLLECTION OF FINEST BORDEAUX OF THE EXCELLENT 1966 VINTAGE, INCLUDING LATOUR AND PETRUS
1966, a lean long-distance runner of a vintage producing classic wines much beloved by the claret connoisseur. Furthermore, most unusual to find full cases of these top Châteaux which have remained in the same ownership and optimum cellarage since original purchase following the vintage
Lying in Kemble, Gloucestershire (Octavian)
Château Latour--Vintage 1966
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Remains of original tissues. Slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: eight top, one upper, two mid/upper and one mid-shoulder with corroded capsule
Repacked from original wooden case into new wooden case
Tasting note: opaque core; sweet old cedary bouquet starting to show some age; very rich mouthful, dry finish. 'Lovely now'. ***** Dec 2001, M.B.
