Forts de Latour 2004 OWC

Discover the prestige of Château Latour, a legendary Médoc estate where excellence meets tradition. This Forts de Latour 2004, the second wine of a Premier Cru Classé, embodies the elegance of Bordeaux. Made mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon (76%) and Merlot (22%), this red wine reveals the richness of the Pauillac terroir. The vineyard, nestled 300 meters from the Gironde estuary, rests on draining gravelly soils, benefiting from a temperate oceanic climate that favors slow ripening. Precise, respectful vinification includes fermentation in stainless steel vats and ageing in oak barrels (50% new) for 18 months, conferring structure and complexity. The 2004 vintage, marked by a balanced summer, offers remarkable quality with silky tannins. On tasting, this wine seduces with its aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and sweet spices, enhanced by toasty notes. Its velvety texture and lingering finish make it an ideal choice for lovers of great Bordeaux reds. Order this jewel of the terroir today!
