Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe
top shoulder level - label bin soiled.

Despite the poor vintage, Latour produced a rather big, deeply colored, somewhat disjointed, and clumsy wine, but one with good fruit, a herbaceous, cedary bouquet, and good flavor concentration. Drink now!

Chateau Latour only selects grapes from the 47 hectares which surround the Château Latour, the heart of the estate to make the ""Grand Vin de Château Latour. The 1972 is medium-deep in colour with plenty of amber at the rim. Lots of fragrant earthy aromas. Bright fruitiness characterised the palate

Bertani
Damaged labels | Special Offer | Was £299 | Now £199

This 1971 Amarone Wine from Bertani has a distinct nose of raisins, mushrooms and dark cherry fruit.

Sauternes Premiere Grand Cru Classe
Includes Light Oak Gift Box

The 1970 Chateau Yquem is a monumental wine that has been perfectly cellared for nearly 50 years before being acquired by VWP. Perfect colour and exceptional condition.

"The 1970 Yquem is a large-scaled, rich, full-bodied, fairly alcoholic Yquem with significant flavor interest as well as crisp acidity. Unlike the 1971, which is close to peak maturity, this wine has a long way to go and is impressive, but not yet revealing all of its potential." Robert Parker, Bordeaux 3rd Edition.

1970 Chateau Mouton Rothschild, Pauillac:
The 1970 Mouton Rothschild had opened magnificently to reveal a classic bouquet of sweet cassis, tobacco, minerals, and exotic spice aromas. Opulent, full-bodied, thick, and juicy, the extraordinary evolution of this particular bottle would make a persuasive argument for long-term decanting. After being perplexed throughout much of this wine's evolution, I was reassured by this bottle. …

1970 Very Old White Single harvest Tawny Port
Presented in Gift Box as pictured

1970 Quevedo White Port. This is a true rarity as very little white port was made and only a small fraction was released. Tasted from cask at Quevedo's cellars from a family barrel, this is a beautiful port of outstanding quality. The colour is dark amber, nose of mature fruit, hazelnuts with a touch of caramel and nutmeg. On the palate there is a great balance of acidity and sweetness. This is a drier style of Port that I find really refreshing, especially when served slightly chilled. This port has a finish that is endless. 98/100 VWP Tasting from cask feb 2020.

The huge nose of liquorice, smoke, jammy black-cherry and cassis fruit is followed by a wine of seamless components, all super-packed with gorgeously pure fruit, yet the wine is not heavy or overbearing. There is a real sense of elegance to this Quinta do Noval. This port is fully mature drinking perfectly and will continue to evolve for another 20 or more years.

Vintage Port

The 1970 Taylor's Vintage Port is a consistently high performer and rated as one of the best of the 1970 ports.

99 points Wine Enthusiast
This wine's dark garnet color with minimal bricking suggests a relatively youthful wine and this certainly could age longer, although it's also delicious now. Wonderfully complex floral and herbal scents easily move into deep, rich flavors of chocolate and cherries, sprinkled with a healthy dose of Douro minerality and spice. Drink or hold. (JC) (2/2007)

The 1970 Chateau Lafite Wonderful notes of smoke, mild truffle and focussed ripe plum; charred oak - all incredibly concentrated.

VINTAGE PORT
Low Shoulder level
Clearance | Was £159 | Now £50

The nose has a slightly tawny, baked-earth edge to it, with aromas of spiced cedar wood, parma violets and sweet roasted meats. It is fresher than the wine's appearance would suggest. And the palate certainly has flesh at the beginning, and continuing through the middle, with a fair amount of structure still evident as well. In truth there are some attractive, perfumed elements to the flavour here, but also a lot of grip, and a slightly hot aspect to it as well. The finish is long, but a touch hot and fierce again. This is certainly a wine worth experiencing.

Vintage Port

*** 93 Points (Parker) ***

"...a definite Bordeaux-like nose! Well defined, foursquare at first, opening up nicely with maraschino cherries, cloves, burnt wood/embers and bergamot, gaining intensity all the time in the glass. The palate is very harmonious and elegant. Fleshy, harmonious, seductive on the palate with allspice, nutmeg and ginger sprinkled over the viscous finish and finally, freshly rolled tobacco on the aftertaste. Good length, powerful like many of the 1970 ports continue to be. Superb. Drink now-2020+ Neil Martin Wine Journal Tasted September 2009.
