1966

Which 1966 wine to buy? Our 1966 best buying advices

If you wish to offer a wine from 1966, we advise you to go for the great wines of Bordeaux. Some red Bordeaux wines have evolved with austere, tannic notes, while the great chateaux have produced a very balanced 1966 vintage, such as the following wines : 1966 Latour, 1966 Mission Haut Brion, 1966 Canon, 1966 Leoville Las Cases … which have flourished and are still full of charm and elegance. You will also enjoy the wines : 1966 Branaire Ducru, 1966 Mouton Rothschild, 1966 Haut Brion, 1966 Calon Segur, 1966 Palmer, 1966 Lynch Bages, 1966 Lafleur, 1966 Figeac etc… The Grands Crus of Pomerol, like 1966 Petrus, and 1966 Saint Emilion, like 1966 Cheval Blanc, are everything in concentration, and are built for ageing. On the other hand, the sweet white wines like 1966 Sauternes have had difficulties in growing but some Estates have known how to make exceptional white wines like 1966 Coutet, 1966 Suduiraut or 1966 Yquem. In Burgundy, the wines that have aged to their best today are the white wines of Burgundy from the hill of Montrachet : 1966 Batard Montrachet, 1966 Chevalier Montrachet, 1966 Montrachet, but also 1966 Corton Charlemagne. For the red Burgundy wines of 1966, favour the Grands Crus: 1966 Chambertin, 1966 Clos de Tart, 1966 Clos Vougeot, 1966 Corton, 1966 Echezeaux, 1966 Grands Echezeaux, 1966 Musigny, 1966 Richebourg, 1966 Romanee Conti, 1966 Romanee Saint Vivant.

For 1966 Rhone wines, look at red wines on designations like 1966 Chateauneuf du Pape in Southern Rhone and 1966 Cote Rotie on the Northern Rhone. Also, the sweet natural wines from Roussillon, Rivesaltes or Maury are still brilliant to taste today and you will have some nice surprises abroad as well, on Barolo and Brunello in Italy .
