Château Latour 1986, 12 bottles per lot
Château Latour 1986
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Two slightly damaged capsules. Damaged original tissues. Levels: into-neck
Tasting note: Tasted from my cellar, the 1986 has consistently been outstanding, falling short of being sublime. The spicy, peppery bouquet reveals aromas of dried herbs and red currant fruit. Medium-bodied, austere, but youthful, vigorous, and concentrated, this wine still requires 4-5 years of cellaring. It is surpassed in this vintage (which favored the northern Medoc and Cabernet Sauvignon) by its rivals, Lafite-Rothschild and Mouton-Rothschild. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 129, June 2000.
12 bottles per lot
Special Notice
On lots marked with an + in the catalogue, VAT will be charged at 7.7% on both the premium as well as the hammer price.
