Chateau Latour 1982 Chateau Latour 1982 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe u. 1bn, 2vts, 1ts, 1t/hs, 1 scuffed label, 4 slightly scuffed labels, excellent color and clarity Rich, fabulous nose, so cedary. Great cedary fruit on the palate. Still almost one-dimensional. This gets sweeter and sweeter. Superb, rich wine. In 2008 from an Imperial, it was absolutely stunning, sweeping all before it - the best I have ever had. An incredible treat. In 2011, from bottle, this was just so incisive and youthful, dense and powerful. And, post-sale in New York in 2011, from double magnum, an immensely spicy, aromatic bouquet leads to that thick, enveloping, total succulence of Latour 1982. So sweet and ripe. Massive, yet gentle, wine that plumbs the depths of sensory perception. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 321 5 bts (sc) per lot: USD 3750-5000 The power and glory of Latour are undisputed. The consistency of Latour, due to its fabulous gravel soil, great situation near the Gironde and a succession of inspired winemakers, is unrivaled. It is a wine that can start slowly and then takes off like a rocket. It is always profound with many layers of taste, a real reflection of the heart of Pauillac. Latour is famous for producing impressive wine in more modest vintages, but it knows how to seize great vintages and make them monuments. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Quantity: 1
