1972 Vintage Wineand Port
About the 1972 vintage
1972 Vintage Port :
A good vintage that was not declared, some vintage port and single quintas were produced in this year. Port wines from 1972 are now fully mature but well stored examples will last for many years more, making them a great 50 year old wine gift for a birthday or anniversary.
1972 Italian :
Only a small crop of 1972 wine was produced in Italy and the wines are now very rare. The growing season was held back by inclement weather in the main Italian wine regions of Piedmont and Tuscany. Tuscany produced a small crop of Brunello and Chianti, generally characterised as having good colour, high acidity and some dryness. The best of the vintage originates from the more southerly regions.
1972 Bordeaux :

1972 Vintage Wineand Port Gift Ideas

A rare magnum bottle - Wassily Kandinsky label Reviews: Stands up well for a 72. This had a deep red-brown color that was consistent throughout. It showed an intense nose of fresh asparagus which carried into the palate where it was joined by notes of celery. This exceeded expectations and was surprising drinkable for the amount of greenness it had. The half-bottle leftover the next day lost a lot of the asparagus/celery notes, having them replaced by some bell pepper and hints of cabernet fruit (cassis). One for the collectors.

Rosso Conero is a wine appellation in the central part of the Marche region of Italy just south of Ancona on the slopes of Monte Conero. The red wine made here is based on the Montepulciano grape which must comprise 85% of the wine. If another grape is used, it is commonly Sangiovese.
Price: £119.00

An icon of the Margaux appellation, immediately recognisable by its midnight blue label and its inimitable velvet taste, Château Palmer has illustrated itself, over the course of its history, by a sound obsession: to carry its wines further on in their expression of the nuances of a great terroir.
Price: £269.00

Despite the poor vintage, Latour produced a rather big, deeply colored, somewhat disjointed, and clumsy wine, but one with good fruit, a herbaceous, cedary bouquet, and good flavor concentration. Drink now! Chateau Latour only selects grapes from the 47 hectares which surround the Château Latour, the heart of the estate to make the ""Grand Vin de Château Latour. The 1972 is medium-deep in colour with plenty of amber at the rim. Lots of fragrant earthy aromas. Bright fruitiness characterised the palate

A rare 1972 Petrus. 1972 Vintage wine Tasted: Jun 2013 Pale ruby with some strong brown notes. Smells so rich and seductive! Perfumed and wonderfully heady. Light bodied and sweet. An aperitif-style Petrus! (Served with canapés on the terrace.) Clean. A very good start even if at the end it's a little dried out and not wholly fresh. Slightly dusty, tired finish. But a wine on the way down with a beautifully rich initial impact. Jancis Robinson
