Château Latour--Vintage 1970
Pauillac, 1er cru classé.
All of excellent general appearance, with neck levels, deep color, and clean labels, with the following exceptions: the last lot of magnums consists of top-shoulder levels, the third lot of half-bottles contains four with top-shoulder levels, and the final lot of half-bottles consists of twenty with top-shoulder levels, three high-to-top-shoulder, and one high-shoulder fill
"A blockbuster. . . at its recent best it is still impressively deep; nose marvellously mellow and reassuring, singed, fruit and cedar, then wave after wave of chocolate and spice; sweet entry, massive, a gloriously rich monumental wine, with a little bit - rather, a lot -
of everything." JMB
