Latour 1996
The Château Latour 1996, Premier Grand Cru Classé, illustrates the greatness of Pauillac. Its gravelly soils give birth to a wine with aromas of liquorice, truffle and dark fruits, aged in oak barrels. Silky and mineral, it can be enjoyed until 2030 with roast lamb or aged cheese.

A historic pillar of Pauillac, this estate has embodied Bordeaux excellence since the 14th century, combining family heritage and absolute mastery of the terroir.
- Terroir: Deep gravel and calcareous clays of Pauillac, sculpting wines of a mineral structure and a rare elegance.

Tasting notes for Château Latour 1996
On the eye: A garnet robe with tawny reflections, dense and silky, revealing an accomplished maturity without heaviness.
