Lot 439 Details
CHÂTEAU LATOUR 2005

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

The palate is very well balanced with blackberry, black plum, sea salt, a hint of balsamic, quite spicy in the mouth with a hint of cloves. There is immense weight and presence in the mouth, although I wonder whether the tannins are as fine as say the 2010 or even the nascent 2016 Latour tasted alongside? Either way, it remains a fabulous First Growth destined to last many, many years. Tasted March 2017 Drink to 2065 WA 98

2 bts.    per lot $1,500 - $1,700

Realised: $2,280
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
