Les Forts de Latour 2007 is a Second Wine from the illustrious Château Latour in Pauillac, Bordeaux. This vintage is crafted from 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Merlot, showcasing the estate`s characteristic finesse. The wine`s aromatics feature layers of black fruit, subtle graphite and a hint of cedar. On the palate, it displays a structured profile with a focused expression of plum and blackberry, complemented by earthy undertones.

Vinous
Good full, deep red. Aromas of cassis, licorice and pepper. Supple and sweet but serious, with a slightly medicinal cast to the flavors of cassis, tobacco leaf, sassafras and leather. Finishes with supple tannins, a subtly sappy quality and very good length.Stephen Tanzer1st July 2010

A Towering First Growth
Situated on the Bordeaux's Left Bank in the appellation of Pauillac, this superb First Growth is produced from the estate's 92ha of vines, spread across 138 plots, (47 hectares of which are located in renowned 'L'Enclos'). The clay and gravel soils give superbly concentrated, textural Cabernet Sauvignon dominant reds, with Merlot and smaller percentages of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc making up the blend.
The estate also produces two further celebrated reds, Les Forts de Latour and Pauillac de Latour. Certified organic since 2018, biodynamic techniques are also used in the vineyard.
