Chateau Latour 2011 shows a poised, serious character, layering dark plum, cassis and raspberry fruit with graphite, tobacco and a subtle minty lift. The palate is medium to full-bodied and tightly woven, with firm, precise tannins and vibrant acidity that carry a long, focused, slightly spicy finish. This is a stately, classical Latour that emphasizes structure and freshness over sheer power.

Château Latour is the iconic Grand Vin of the First Growth estate in Pauillac, crafted almost entirely from old Cabernet Sauvignon‑dominant vines in the famed l’Enclos parcel overlooking the Gironde. Renowned for its immense structure, longevity, and precision, it typically blends Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, expressing the powerful yet refined character of Médoc’s deep gravel terroir.
