100 Points

Saturday, December 3, 2011 - The Tenth Annual Stonefields Dinner (Guelph, ON, Canada): My first encounter with 1961 Latour, a wine on my must try before I die list.
What a thrill….such power and elegance. The nose was stunning….ripe primary black currants, cherry, and cassis transition to secondary notes of forest floor, spice, cedar, plums, sweet pipe tobacco and an almost truffle element. The finish is mesmerizing….waves of flavours coat the palate. This is stunning! I’m speechless! Never ending. Wow!
