Ch. Latour a Pomerol 1961 0,75l
Abfüller M.G. Lafite

(Bordeaux, Frankreich)
1 Flasche

EUR 1750 - 2650

GAB20/20, RP100: To put it mildly, this wine is "off the charts." Given its phenomenal richness and amazing precision and balance, it can bring tears to one's eyes. Port-like, with remarkable viscosity and thickness, as well as a finish that lasts for more than a minute, this wine is in a class by itself. Even greater than the 1961 Petrus and 1961 Latour (two perfect wines), it is phenomenal. -2025. Der Abfüller M.G. Lafite aus Brüssel ist einer der, wenn nicht der beste bekannte Abfüller für Latour a Pomerol 1961.
F: BON; E: sehr gut für das Alter, kellergrau. (3715005)

1 Flasche

EUR 170 - 240        -> Zuschlag bei EUR 160

B(00)*****, GAB18/20, WS97-93: This bears the same relation to the ’86 as the ’89 does to the ’90: It’s riper, broader, a bit softer and more evolved. -2020.

Pauillac 1er Cru Classé

(Bordeaux, Frankreich)
1 Flasche

EUR 170 - 250        -> Zuschlag bei EUR 190

GAB19/20, RP90, TAN97+: Cassis, shoe polish, camphor and rose petal on the nose; this reminded me of a great vintage of Latour. Dense and extremely concentrated; explosive yet totally backward. There is nothing playful about this infant claret. Finishes with extraordinary, slow-building persistence. Very serious juice; one of the great Bordeaux of the 1980s. -2020
F: IN; E: gut. (3752025)

(Bordeaux, Frankreich)
2 Flaschen

EUR 240 - 380        -> Zuschlag bei EUR 280

GAB17/20, B****, RP90-91: The 1997 Latour will be a surprisingly fine wine, as well as one of the longest lived offerings of the vintage. Sweet, jammy fruit is intertwined with dried herbs, coffee, and earth in this saturated ruby/purple-coloured wine. The finish lasts for 20 seconds, a positive sign for a 1997. -2018.

WS90, BET8/10, GAB17/20, RP89+, TAN90: Juicy and youthful in the mouth, with moderate flesh but insinuating, sweet flavor. Finishes with slightly dusty tannins and intriguing Indian spices. A serious, rather backward wine that requires at least five or six years of bottle aging.
