64' Vintage

[hotwine]

IK, you have a great memory! I recall the '64s as being excellent, although I wouldn't care to even try to name any labels. My old ('91) copy of Broadbent gives the '64s two to four stars, out of five possible. He singled out for four stars the Latour (5 stars (sic)), Haut-Brion, Cheval-Blanc (also 5 stars), Petrus, Beychevelle, Canon, Dom de Chevalier, Figeac and, La Mission Haut-Brion. (He introduced the '64s with a general rating of two to four stars, then proceded to give some of them five stars.) He gave ratings on 32 wines and notes on an additional 19, in fine print covering a bit more than two pages.
If you have a question on a particular wine, I'll be glad to see if it's listed.
