Wine Spectator August - 2000
Wine Spectator
A pretty and harmonious wine. Amber-red color. Berry, cedar, ash, with hints of tea and tobacco. Medium-bodied, with medium silky tannins and a tobacco, cherry finish.

Jean-Marc Quarin December - 1997
Jean-Marc Quarin
Color. Dark red, good intensity, evolved towards brown. Nose. Clean. Medium intensity. Fine, fruity. Nuances of cherry, tobacco and undergrowth. At once fresh, evolved and creamy. Swirling. Identical with more fruit. Supple attack developing on a juicy structure, ample for the year, quite rich, even if the concentration remains medium. Then the wine unfolds after the mid-palate into a long finish. The tannin lacks envelope but the aroma persists for a long time on a note of austerity.

Château Latour

Château Latour is one of the most emblematic estates in the Pauillac appellation and a founding reference in Bordeaux wine history. Its name appears as early as the 14th century, linked to the presence of a watchtower on the Gironde estuary, whose proximity still profoundly marks the identity of the vineyard. From the 18th century onwards, the wines of Château Latour were recognized for their consistency and aging ability, establishing themselves among the greatest wines of the Médoc.

Classified as Premier Grand Cru Classé in the official 1855 classification, Château Latour occupies a central position at the summit of the Bordeaux hierarchy. The estate rests on particularly homogeneous deep gravel terroir, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, which gives the wines a powerful structure, remarkable depth and great regularity of expression.

The signature of Château Latour is distinguished by a dense tannic architecture and demanding construction, favoring precision and longevity over immediate seduction. Emblematic vintages such as Château Latour 1945, Château Latour 1961, Château Latour 1990, Château Latour 1996, Château Latour 2000 or Château Latour 2009 illustrate the estate's ability to consistently express the excellence of the Pauillac terroir and the singularity of its style.
