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.
Château Latour
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.
- Vinification: Patient aging in oak barrels, respecting the purity of the fruit and the natural tension of great vintages.
Tasting notes for Château Latour 1996
On the eye: A garnet robe with tawny reflections, dense and silky, revealing an accomplished maturity without heaviness.
On the nose: Aromas of candied blackcurrant, fresh cedar and black truffle, underlined by a saline touch and a hint of blonde tobacco.
On the palate: A velvety texture, carried by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, with a long and precise finish, marked by notes of liquorice and burnished leather.
Serve at 16–18 °C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 1996
A classic Pauillac vintage, combining concentration and freshness, born of a hot summer and a dry autumn.
- Aging potential: 20 to 30 years under optimal conditions (cool cellar, away from light and vibrations).
