Château Latour à Pomerol: An Icon of Elegant Claret

Château Latour à Pomerol stands as a benchmark for the appellation, renowned for its Merlot-dominant blend and the masterful touch of the Établissements Jean-Pierre Moueix. Sourced from the varied clay and gravel soils of the Pomerol plateau, this wine is a classic Claret, delivering a profound depth of flavour married to a characteristic velvety texture. It is a wine built for the cellar, promising magnificent evolution over decades.

Tasting Notes: The Decanter’s View

• **Appearance:** A rich, deep garnet, characteristic of age-worthy Pomerol.
• **Bouquet:** Profound and earthy, offering signature notes of black truffle, autumnal undergrowth, sweet spice, and concentrated black cherry fruit.
• **Mouthfeel:** Exceptionally smooth and full-bodied, with tannins that are beautifully integrated and polished. The wine is concentrated yet beautifully balanced, leading to a persistent, luxurious finish with hints of coffee bean and tobacco.

The Perfect Serve

This distinguished wine is an ideal pairing for Britain’s finest roasts and game. Decanting is highly recommended, especially for younger bottles, to soften the structure and enhance aromatic expression. Serve cool, at approximately 16°C.
