Château Latour

Château Latour, Pauillac - The Quintessential Prestige of a First Growth

Château Latour is one of the most iconic names in Bordeaux wine, located in the Pauillac appellation on the Left Bank of the Gironde. Classified as a First Growth in 1855, this historic estate is renowned for its wines of supreme elegance and unmatched depth, making each bottle a true masterpiece.

Primarily crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, with significant proportions of Merlot and touches of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, Château Latour embodies the essence of the great Médoc wines. On the palate, it reveals a complex and captivating bouquet of ripe black fruits, cassis, cherry, and plum, enhanced by notes of cedar, tobacco, leather, and graphite. The wine stands out for its imposing structure, powerful yet fine tannins, and an incredibly long and elegant finish, marked by remarkable freshness and profound minerality.

Château Latour is an exceptional aging wine, evolving and improving magnificently over decades, developing even more complex aromas and a more refined texture over time. It pairs perfectly with red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses. For wine enthusiasts, Château Latour is an essential experience, representing the pinnacle of sophistication and quality in the world of wine.
