Thrilling notes of pure crème de cassis, lead pencil shavings, crushed mint, graphite, and crushed rock notes all emerge from this deep, powerful, yet elegant Pauillac. The style of this wine has become more and more finesse-driven and pure, yet it hasn’t lost a beat on concentration or length.

Rich and bold, the wine is dark maroon. It’s not shy, with big blackcurrant fruit. There is an energy on the mid-palate, real vitality. It finishes with silky fruit and grippy tannins.
Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon 60%, Merlot 30%, Petit Verdot 3% and Cabernet Franc 7%.
The wine is a deep, dazzling purple. Initially rather closed, the nose opens with airing to reveal elegant fresh fruit, blackcurrant bud and eucalyptus aromas. A fresh, clean attack leads into a full, powerful and silky mid-palate, building to an incredibly long finish on notes of brioche and liquorice. An intense and stylish vintage to come back to in a few years’ time.
Intense and very pure, the nose combines black fruit fragrances (blackberries, blueberries) with woody (cedar) and mineral (graphite) notes. Medium-bodied, the palate entices with its refined structure and tight tannins. A silky, creamy feel stretches to a persistent, aromatic finish.

Very dark color, with purple glints, indicating that the wine is still very much in its youth. The nose is still quite closed, which is to be expected after only a few months in the bottle. But it already presents good depth and plenty of complexity. Notes of fresh strawberries and tobacco, in which the wood has become perfectly integrated. The attack is simultaneously supple and very powerful.
Deep black cherry and cassis aromas blend the power of Merlot with the elegance of Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc. A ripe blackcurrant density dominates gorgeously-textured palate whilst the succulent tannins melt towards the finish. This is precise and fine, all the elements balanced perfectly within a framework of elegance. This has a really fine richness. Focused, with a depth of fruit and tannin, this is so well balanced. An absolutely tremendous finish.
Blend: 50% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc

In the glass, the crimson color of the wine is deep and intense. The nose is elegant, combining both floral and fruity notes. In the mouth, the wine reveals a suave and fleshy texture, yet remains delicate with much promise. The finale is powerful and complex. An incredibly lengthy and structured Chateau Latour.
