Description/ Tasting Notes
Gorgeous core of steeped plum, boysenberry and black currant coulis flavours backed by graphite note that drives through the lengthy finish. Beautifully rich, savoury, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel and lots of crushed rock, floral and black as well as blue fruit notes in addition to hints of ink and forest floor.Winery Info/ Brand
Chateau Latour is a French wine estate, rated as a First Growth under the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, owned by Groupe Artemis. Latour lies at the very southeastern tip of the commune of Pauillac in the Médoc region to the north-west of Bordeaux, at its border with Saint-Julien, and only a few hundred metres from the banks of the Gironde estuary. The estate produces three red wine in all. In addition to its Grand Vin, Latour has also produced the second wine Les Forts de Latour since 1966, and a third wine, simply named Pauillac, has been released every year since 1990.
Region Info/ Origin
Pauillac is home to several of the world's most famous wine and the region lies in an inauspicious small village in Médoc. Pauillac sprawls over the land size of about 8.8 square miles, is highly optimised for wine production and accounts for a rather disproportionate amount of fine, expensive wine in Bordeaux.
