1977 Château Latour - Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classé - 1 Flaske (0,75 l)

1er Grand CRU CLASSÉ - Pauillac - 75 cl

One of the wines that helped build the legend of Bordeaux, with rare depth and concentration, while maintaining exceptional elegance in perfect balance.

The Latour wine is an example of regularity whatever the quality of the vintage. It requires long aging to reveal all its depth, power and extraordinary richness.

At perfect maturity, the wine is distinguished by an incredible bouquet of blackcurrant, hazelnut and leather. A monumental wine.
