1962, a truly exceptional vintage. In Bordeaux, the harvest was abundant and of high quality. The Médoc produced outstanding wines, notably the Château Latour 1962 which is exceptional. In other appellations, we recommend Château Haut Brion 1962, Château Léoville Las Cases 1962 and Montrose 1962. 1962 is a great year for Sauternes sweet wines.
