1961 CHÂTEAU L'ARROSÉE 1961

(01-1998)
I hope more recent vintages, such as 1982, 1985, and 1986, will ultimately rival this great wine. It challenges the finest St.-Emilions in this legendary vintage. Medium rubygarnet, with a huge, spicy, jammy, fruitcake sort of bouquet crammed with intensity, the lush, expansive, generously endowed flavors are smooth as silk. The wine has an opulent texture and a long, smoky, alcoholic finish

A great vintage often compared to the 1945
