Barolo, 1961
Pin Bologna - Riserva
Barolo DOCG 1961 “Pin Bologna” Riserva
Vintage & Background
1961 is widely acknowledged as one of the standout Barolo vintages of the 20th century. It saw conditions that allowed Nebbiolo to ripen fully, giving power, structure, and great ageing ability. The “Riserva” or reserve designation would imply longer ageing or special selection. The “Pin Bologna – Rocchetta Tanaro” label suggests a specific vineyard or cooperative origin in the Piedmont region.

Chateau Latour, 1961
Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe Half Bottle **100 Points Robert Parker**
The 1961 Latour is a wine legend!
Michael Broadbent rated it as one of his rare six-star wines, Robert Parker has consistently given it 100 points. This is a rare half bottle in good condition with a great level.
The 1961 crop was a small one, frost in May having wiped out most of the Merlot. The Latour team took pride in having picked – unlike some other properties – before excessive ripeness set in, allowing a perfectly balanced and appetising wine to be produced. The disastrous conditions in May meant that the crop was very small, and from the outset the château reported that the wines were dark, rich, ripe and incredibly concentrated but perfectly balanced. …

Chateau L'Hermitage, 1961
St Emilion

Pauillac 5me Cru Classe
Mid to upper shoulder level
ROBERT PARKER: 95
Still a spectacular wine, the 1961 defies mortality. It has been at its peak for nearly 15 years, yet it shows no signs of losing its fruit and drying out. The color is a dark garnet with orange/amber at the edge. The profound bouquet has the magnetic allure that leaves great Bordeaux unmatched for complexity. Sweet notes of dried fruits, herbs, tobacco, smoke, and roasted meats are followed by an opulently-textured, thick, nearly viscous wine with high glycerin, ripe, jammy fruit, and an intoxicating combination of glycerin, extract, and suppleness. The wine holds in the glass without cracking up, and has a good 40-45 second finish. …
