Les Forts de Latour 1973
Les Forts de Latour 1973, sourced from the plots of Pauillac, is a red wine in which Cabernet Sauvignon dominates. Aged in barrels, it reveals notes of dark fruits and a mineral touch. Its silky tannins make it an excellent wine for ageing, ideal with duck breast.
Château Latour
A legendary estate rooted in the gravels of Pauillac, where the history of the Médoc has been written for more than three centuries.
- Terroir: Gravelly and clay-limestone soils of Pauillac, the cradle of great Bordeaux wines, shaping cuvées of unparalleled mineral depth and structure.
- Vinification: Aged in French oak barrels, with respect for natural cycles and rigorous selection of plots, producing wines of remarkable precision and longevity.
Tasting notes for Château Latour Les Forts de Latour 1973
To the eye: A garnet red robe with tiled highlights, dense and lightly veiled by time, revealing a silky texture and generous body.
On the nose: First aromas of ripe blackcurrant and wild blackberry, followed by notes of cedar, blonde tobacco and a hint of undergrowth, all lifted by a subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate: A velvety attack, carried by a lively acidity and a still-present tannic structure, offering a stony minerality and a persistently long finish, where sweet spices and candied dark fruits intertwine.
Serve at 16°C in a Bordeaux glass to fully release its expression.
Vintage 1973
A vintage marked by balanced ripeness, where cool nights preserved the elegance of the tannins and the aromatic complexity.
- Ageing potential: This wine, already at full maturity, can still be cellared for 10 to 15 years under optimal conditions (cool cellar, away from light and vibrations).
