BORDEAUX
LATOUR
Château Latour--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Levels: one top shoulder, two upper shoulder; one nicked capsule, lightly bin soiled and nicked labels
"1959 Latour was a revelation, with rich, lush black fruit on the nose and hints of baking spices alongside elegant notes of cedar, smoke and a hint of black truffle. On the palate the wine was almost shockingly youthful, with a seamless, creamy texture, full body and an amazing finish. The wine lingered on the palate, continuing to evolve in the glass, and offering pretty licorice and black cherry notes an hour after pouring. This wine illustrates the triumph of finesse over raw power." CC, October 2008
