Description

Château Latour needs no introduction – a world famous brand whose label commands huge respect and often price tags to match. But there is more to Latour than its hugely marketable name and label.
Latour is the most consistent of the first growths in terms of quality. Even in difficult years it manages to create wines that put many of its neighbors in the shade.
One of Bordeaux's most concentrated rich and full-bodied wines. Latour is dark ruby in color and has a unique bouquet of fresh walnuts, leather, and black currants.

“This is one of the more perplexing Latours to evaluate. It has plenty of sweetness as well as a gorgeous, rich fruitiness, but it lacks the firmness one finds in more recent great vintages such as 1996, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, and 2008. There is plenty of sweet, ripe currant fruitiness, abundant glycerin, and full body, but I’m still waiting for that extra nuance of complexity to emerge. It’s all there, but the wine still seems to be more monolithic than one would expect in a wine approaching 19 years of age. It is not the sure-fire winner I thought it was in its youth, but then again, I don’t have any reason to doubt that more complexity will emerge. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2035.” (95 Points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Jun 2009)
