The vineyard of Château Latour It covers approximately 78 hectares, cultivated primarily with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The soil, composed of a mixture of clay and limestone, promotes optimal drainage, essential for the ripening of the grapes. climat The region's oceanic climate, with its hot summers and mild winters, allows for a slow and even ripening of the grapes, thus contributing to the concentration of aromas and the balance of the wine. Each plot is carefully chosen to express the quintessence of the Pauillac terroir.
The team's opinion
While 2015 was a hot and dry year, the late-season rains brought the necessary freshness to prevent any heaviness. The result is a wine with the structure of a great Bordeaux classic and a very contemporary fruit maturity. If you are lucky enough to open a bottle of it soon, decanting it for 3 to 4 hours is essential to allow its complexity to express itself.
