Description
Château Latour is one of the most iconic names in the world of wine and a benchmark for enduring excellence. The estate is known for its precision, longevity, and the ability to bring out the full potential of each vintage.
Grapes for the Grand Vin come exclusively from the central vineyard, L’Enclos, where old vines are carefully cultivated to produce fruit of exceptional depth and concentration. Every step of production, from hand harvesting to fermentation and aging in French oak, is designed to preserve the character of the soil and the authenticity of the grape variety.
Tasting notes
“The 2015 Latour it is blessed with a refined and focused bouquet: perfumed blackberry and raspberry scents, iodine, pine and light pencil shaving aromas. It has dispensed with the subtle fig-like/exotic notes noticeable three years ago, arguably a little more conservative today. The palate is medium-bodied, with fine-grain tannins; harmonious and poised, clean and precise, understated with an irresistible silky texture. This sublime First Growth will cruise for many years.”
