1961 Château Latour Grand VinPauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/29/2024 - rnellans wrote: 98 pointsCru Crew Wine dinner hosted by Brad England (Mara restaurant at the Four Seasons hotel in Minneapolis, MN.): Served alongside '61 Mouton Rothschild, Lafite, LaMissioin HB and Petrus in a tasting/dininer preceeded by 19 vintages of Ramonet Montrachet. Needless to say, my palate may not be 100% up to par. Although not bought on release this bottle is the last bottle of a case and has been in my cellar for more than 50 years. Wow wine to me. Tobacco, dark fruits on the nose. It shines on the palate with layers of rich fruit, soft tannins. Very long lingering finish. Best of the flight for me without question. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

This presents as a fairly serious wine, and one that will need more than a handful of years to fully come together. That said, the quality is undeniable, and likely one of my top favorites from the Left Bank (I’m usually more a Right Bank fella most of the time). It is fresh and a little haunting at the same time. An array of black, purple, and red fruit form a primary skirmish line in front of a significant wall of mineral and spice notes. Finishes with crazy exactitude. |

4/24/2024 - Cremuel Likes this wine: 94 pointsBob’s cellar. A good looking ruby red, no bricking at all. Pnp, nose is a blast of barnyard funk, red acidity and ascending dark fruit, grip, unsmoked cigar leaf and very good depth. Taste is restrained at this early stage, supremely fine, there are no jagged edges here. It’s dark fruit balanced with a perfect acidity, tannins are just there without being obtrusive, it’s calm and collected and as the air opens up you can feel the depth beckoning you over to be involved. It’s very very good, undoubtedly excellent. Am going to allow this to breathe for a while before the next glass. |

Amazing purity and richness on the full bodied palate. Also lead pencil and grafite. This is the style of Latour and ending in a long, long incredible finish. |

This bottle was complex, superbly balanced and offered a lot of drinking pleasure, despite still showing young. However, this bottle in this setting didn’t have the je-ne-sais-qua-factor you would expect from a legend and that ultra-classic Latour profile, which in my head usually defines what Bordeaux is or should be. Still, this was a very good wine and has decades to go. |

So aromatic on the nose here with fruits and flowers while maintaining nice elegance. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (5) |

4/20/2024 - dbenglis Likes this wine: 94 pointsInitial nose was a bit off putting. I allowed the wine to open up in a decanter for about an hour. The wine just needed to breath. Excellent bottle. Drinking well now. This particular bottle did not have the complexity in the tertiary notes compared to Lafitte of the same year. I realize this observation could be attributed to bottle variability and I also do not have other experiences with this particular vintage. |

Closed on the nose for 10min then it really got going. Dark fruit, tobacco, coffee. Some sweeter red fruit came out with time. What I loved was the balance and symmetry. Incredibly round and silky. Regal and majestic are definitely appropriate descriptors. And this was so youthful yet with details and flavors that only time can produce. We drank this way too fast…90min out of a decanter. Hope to try it again and give it a few more hours. |

4/13/2024 - MN Wine Junkie Likes this wine: 97 pointsThe Blind Side - no, not football! (Chateau Simms): This amazing bottle was a special treat provided by Cristal2000 at a recent get-together at Chateau Simms. All I can say is the bottle was amazing! This bottle would turn those who love well aged Bordeaux to the dark side...even the oldest palates would succumb to this Siren's song. With a perfumed nose proudly displaying a bouquet of red and black fruit and a palate that lures you in like the pied piper with gorgeous fruit with notes of graphite, tar and shades of earth. Love this! 97+ easily! 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

It had meat and earth complexity. It was glossy in the mouth, with lovely balance and smooth tannins. It finished with bright acid tang and length to burn. |

4/14/2024 - VINNICK Likes this wine: 95 pointsPopped for my wife’s 40th. A beautiful wine with all the elements one would expect, but on this night it was outclassed and flat out beat by the 1990 Lynch Bages. Hard to believe but both my wife and I unanimously agreed. There was an element of barn that dragged this down. Sadly this was my first time having the 1990 (a favorite vintage of mine) and I don’t think I would buy another bottle for the price this fetches these days. Just not worth it. |

4/14/2024 - WildeMeeuw Likes this wine: 91 points Kleur: Diep robijnrood. Aroma / bouquet: Ook na decanteren blijft deze grootsheid in een soort winterslaap. Aangenaam, halfgesloten bouquet met subtiel tertiaire tonen. Smaak / Afdronk: In de mond nog serieus vitaal en jeugdig. Aangename zuurgraad, mondvullend en geconcentreerd maar in dit stadium nog met een vooral sluimerende complexiteit. Verfijnde tannines. Maar in dit stadium nog te jeugdig, vooral in relatie met de al wel wat tertiaire neus. Algemeen / potentieel: In potentie een grootste wijn. Maar op dit moment OP ZEKER nog niet. Decanteren helpt, maar geduld helpt NOG meer! 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 15 + Algemeen / potentieel: 10 = 91/100 |
