Lot 95 Details
CHÂTEAU LATOUR 1995

Pauillac. 1er Cru Classé
u. 2 x vts. 2 x scraped labels.

A beauty, the opaque dense purple-colored 1995 exhibits jammy cassis, vanillin, and minerals in its fragrant but still youthful aromatics. Medium to full-bodied, with exceptional purity, superb concentration, and a long, intense, ripe, 40-second finish, this is a magnificent example of Latour. As the wine sat in the glass, scents of roasted espresso and toasty new oak emerged. This classic will require considerable cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2050. June 2000 WA 96

2 bts.    per lot $1,500 - $1,700

Realised: $1,920
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
