Chateau Latour is a famous winery in the Bordeaux region of France. It is located in the Pauillac production area of Conyac in Médoc. It is recognized as one of the five Premier Cru Classé wineries in Bordeaux and one of the most legendary and elegant representatives of Bordeaux wine.

The grapes are harvested and selected by hand, fermented and aged in French oak barrels for 18 to 24 months, and can continue to age in bottle for many years to develop more complexity and elegance.

The wine is rich and rich, displaying flavors of ripe black fruit, spice, smoke and minerality. The tannins are powerful but elegantly balanced. It has excellent aging potential and can age for decades, showing richness and depth. Regarded as one of the best by enthusiasts and collectors around the world, it has won widespread praise and high ratings. Representing the essence of Bordeaux, excellent quality.

=====================

Deep garnet-black in color, the 1996 is classic Latour at its utmost. The nose offers a tantalizing array of complex notes including dried Chinese plums, toasted nuts, Indian spices and black olive tapenade over a core of dried cherries and aged meat. The palate is pure power that is stunningly balanced giving a generous level of fruit concentration perfectly offset by a high level of very finely grained tannins and seamless freshness. Possessing a finish that just goes on and on, this is as good as it gets.- Robert Parker
