Pauillac - Premier Grand Cru Classé
RATING: 92/100 Parker
Aging potential: 2017 - 2035
Tasted by Neal Martin on June 30, 2017: "Slightly more intense than the Lafite-Rothschild, a touch of minty black fruit, certainly more exotic than the Lafite or Mouton with that subtle touch of black olive. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. This Latour is nicely muscular and heavy, with impressive tension and energy on the saline finish."
TERROIR
The majority of Château Latour's vineyard is located on gravelly hilltops that overlook the Gironde estuary from 12 to 16 meters. The fortunate combination of "Gironde, layers of gravel on the surface and clay in depth" gives the terroir of Château Latour a singularity that few sites can boast.
The 2007 vintage is composed of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
SERVICE
Château Latour is served at a temperature of 15°C, in a red wine glass of the "Bordeaux" type. The ideal quantity is 15 cl. To control the temperature of the wine you can use a wine thermometer. Simply plunge it into a glass filled to 1/3 of the wine to be served.
FOOD AND WINE PAIRING
Château Latour can be served with aperitifs, starters, main courses or cheeses. It will accompany for example a nice piece of grilled beef but also mushrooms such as pancakes or truffled starters. For the cheese, prefer a cheese of character to counterbalance the tense perfumes of the nectar.
