Lot #687. Gruaud-Larose 1959

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 96 JL.
"This was my experience with the 1959 Gruaud Larose. I hope it won't be my last. Intoxicating aromas of earth, tar, leather, smoke, flowers, cigar box, cassis and tobacco fill the air. Big, rich and concentrated, with supple, opulent textures, this sublime wine ends with a long, pure, sweet cherry filled finish." Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider, Dec 13, 2011
Notes: Top shoulder, heavily corroded and scuffed capsule, heavily bin soiled and scuffed label.
