"So much violets, licorice, pencil, flowers and currants define this on the nose before it moves to fresh mushrooms. It’s full-bodied yet compacted with tension and a compressed center palate. Incredible, fine-grained tannins and energy. The length is truly great. Should be even more beautiful in 2024. Give it time."

Description
The chateau itself first got a mention when Jean Froissart, a court historian, recorded two-storey tower 'La Tor de Sent-Maubert' being overrun by the English during the Hundred Years War. However, it's thought that wine was being produced at Latour as early as the 12th century.
