Le Forts de Latour 1993, the second wine of Château Latour, draws its character from the gravelly terroirs of Pauillac. Aged in barrels, it offers notes of blackberry and tobacco, a velvety structure and a mineral touch. Ideal until 2030 with game or cheeses.
Château Latour
A historic pillar of Pauillac, this estate has embodied Bordeaux's standards of excellence for centuries, combining family tradition and viticultural precision.
- Terroir: Deep gravels and clays of Pauillac, where Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes into age-worthy wines, dense and mineral.
- Vinification: Rigorous aging in oak barrels, producing cuvées with an elegant structure and long persistence.
Tasting notes for the wine Château Latour Forts de Latour 1993
To the eye: Garnet robe with tawny reflections, of a silky texture lightly veiled by time.
On the nose: Aromas of candied blackcurrant, cedar, blonde tobacco and undergrowth, lifted by a saline touch and a hint of graphite.
On the palate: Precise attack, melted but still present tannins, lively acidity and a mineral finish with notes of licorice and mushroom.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its nuances.
Vintage 1993
A classic Bordeaux vintage, marked by balanced maturity and a structure conducive to evolution.
- Aging potential: Drink now or cellar for another 5 to 10 years under optimal conditions (cool and humid cellar).
