97 points Vinous: "The 1966 Taylor's Vintage Port is a hugely overlooked Port. The bouquet is typical 1966 and oddly mirrors a Left Bank Bordeaux: conservative and masculine, yet detailed and offering attractive scents of cigar box, mahogany bureau, sandalwood and ripe cherry. The palate is foursquare with wonderful structure, spicier and more vigorous than the 1963 with greater persistence and focus. There is a wonderful bead of acidity and it feels virile and fresh on the finish that has beguiling symmetry. Later it reveals wild strawberry, cigar box, ...Read More »

John Gilman: "The 1966 vintage in Rioja is a good, but not a great year, and this is reflected in the rather moderate ripeness level of 12.6 percent alcohol of the ’66 Imperial Gran Reserva. Consequently, the wine is just a touch austere in personality, even at age forty-seven, but I very much like this wine for its impressive aromatic and flavor complexity and its classic Imperial refinement. The bouquet is pure and classy, offering up scents of dark berries, a touch of raspberry, tobacco, gentle meatiness, spices, discreet notes of nutskin and a bit of ...Read More »

93 points Vinous: "Having tasted the 1966 Laville Haut-Brion three times now, I know it can be an outstanding Pessac-Léognan. This was not in the same class as the bottle tasted back in 2015, although it still shows its class. Closed at first, the 1966 then opens with those disarming lanolin and wax resin scents, albeit without the delineation of previous bottles. The palate offers notes of dried pineapple, quite saline in the mouth, with strong and powerful honeyed notes towards the finish. This certainly improved in the glass, gaining more precision an ...Read More »

94 points John Gilman: "I had only tasted the ’66 Cheval on one previous occasion, and that bottle was a stylish, complex and gentle middleweight. This bottle was several notches up from the previous one, offering terrific mid-palate depth and great length and grip on the complex finish. The bouquet is classic, mature Cheval, with a level of intensity and depth that is not far off the 1964. Scents of roasted chestnuts, black cherries, hints of bell pepper, tobacco, a bit of menthol and coffee tones soar from the glass. On the palate the wine is full-bodi ...Read More »

1966 Viña Real Reserva Especial Rioja
Bid on this 2-bottle lot of 1966 Viña Real Reserva Especial Rioja (96RP). Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Curiously, 1966 was not considered a very good vintage, with the official classification being "Normal" (something unheard of these days). CVNE was a little more optimistic, and matured its 1966 Viña Real Gran Reserva in American oak barrels until it was bottled in May 1974. The wine is simply stunning, complex and rich, with fully resolved tannins, it has energy and balance, and should still keep in bottle. (LG)" (04/2015)

1966 Du Tertre, Margaux
Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 1966 Du Tertre, Margaux in original wood. 90 points from Jeannie Cho Lee, M.W.: "A light-bodied red with lifted flavors of dried cranberry, sweet spices and flowers. There is wonderful purity, good acidity and sweetness in this wine. This du Tertre that still has some charming flavors to offer." (06/2015)
