Château Latour
A pillar of Pauillac wines, this legendary estate has embodied Bordeaux excellence for centuries, blending family tradition with an absolute mastery of the terroir.
- Terroir: Gravelly soils of the Pauillac appellation, where Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes into a mineral and powerful expression, shaped by the oceanic climate.
- Vinification: Aging in oak barrels, respect for natural cycles and the pursuit of a precise tannic structure, yielding wines that are both full-bodied and elegant.

Tasting notes for Château Latour 1997
To the eye: Deep ruby red robe with garnet highlights, a silky density and a crystalline brilliance.
On the nose: Aromas of ripe blackcurrant, freshly shelled walnuts and aged leather, lifted by a touch of pencil shavings and a subtle mineral salinity.
On the palate: Velvety and taut texture, carried by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, with a long and harmonious finish, where blonde tobacco and gentle spices intertwine.
Serve between 16 and 18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 1997
A classic Pauillac vintage, marked by balanced maturity and a supple tannic structure, ideal for drinking now.
- Aging potential: At its peak, this wine can still be kept for 5 to 10 years under optimal conditions (stable temperature, controlled hygrometry).
