Château Latour Bordeaux-style Red Blend -2005 (WE-58929)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

98-100 Barrel Sample. This has to be the wine of the vintage. It sums up all the positives of a great year: glorious fruit, power, elegance and acidity to balance. The tannins are enormous but they are still brooding rather than extracted. 87% of Cabernet Sauvignon. 1 Note

Château Latour Bordeaux-style Red Blend -2008 (WE-99333)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

90-92 Barrel sample. Firm and austere, dark with tannins that come from a dry core, with high acid around. The fruit is juicy, but it is on the edgy, dry side. Unlike usual vintages of this wine, it seems to need aging. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Les Forts de Latour is at the level of some of the Médoc classed growths. This 2006 is wonderfully juicy with ripe fruit that floats above the dry structure. It is the freshness combined with that generous fruit that is so outstanding here. A great wine for drinking after 3–4 years. 1 Note

Château Latour Bordeaux-style Red Blend -2006 (WE-94908)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Latour has always had the reputation of producing great wines in the less great vintages. The 2006 is a case in point. It brings structure and ripeness into a form that is almost ethereal. That elegance doesn’t take away from the powerful fruit. The fruit in fact melds into the structure with ease. And, as a reminder this is a 2006, the density gives way to freshness on the finish. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

95-97 A big Latour, that has dense tannins and dark, brooding fruit. It also has balance and black flavors which give the wine a complexity and depth. The wine is finely balanced, packed with flavors that will develop slowly over many years. 1 Note

Château Latour Bordeaux-style Red Blend -2004 (WE-68725)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

There are tannins, structure and power, but also supreme elegance. The 2004 acidity comes through in the sweet cassis flavors, supported at the back by dry tannins. Currently, the wine is closed up, losing some of its fresh fruit, but this is a moment in its slow evolution towards a classic Latour. 1 Note

Château Latour Bordeaux-style Red Blend -2005 (WE-81962)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Always the equivalent of many classed growths, Les Forts de Latour is hardly a second wine, deriving from a particular parcel of the Latour vineyard. This 2005 is beautifully balanced, with lively fresh acidity, dense tannins and ripe, juicy black fruits. The acidity stays right to the end. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

96-98 What makes a great Latour is a sense of completeness, of restrained power and of levels of complexity which the other first growths rarely achieve. That's why Latour 2003 is a great wine. 1 Note

91-93 Barrel sample. Effectively a grand cru in its own right, Latour's second wine is superb, ripe with hugely strong tannins, and great, ripe acidity. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Latour’s second wine is, as so often, on a level with many classed growths. In 2004, it is also a very faithful reflection of the vintage: fresh, lively and vital, with acidity and vibrant blackberry fruits very much up front. If not big, it is deliciously fresh and will develop well over five years. 1 Note
