I’ve had other 1966 wines some of which remain very austere and hard. This 1966 from Leoville las Cases reveals the potential that 1966 carried now fully revealed. Delicious exotic plum and spice and berry/cassis herb and exotic wood and...

A classic. Nose is dominated with saddle leather, tobacco and a hint of camphor. Presents with an ethereal poise on the palette. Overripe cherries and graphite complete the ensemble. Immense

I only got a taste. But that's all it took. One of the most remarkable things I've ever had.

In fantastic condition. Very Top Shoulder. Firm cork, pulled in one piece. Wine: Fully enveloped in its secondary aromatic life. Forest floor, sweet leather, excellent color, bright aromas, resolved tannin. It makes me think of '66 Latour, a vintage favorite. Off the 66s, probably top 3-4 of vintage.
