Bordeaux Blend · Pauillac
96 points from Robert Parker.
“1966 Chateau Latour Pauillac Bordeaux - 96 Pts! The wine of the vintage the 1966 Latour is a classic old style Bordeaux that has required decades to become drinkable. A dark opaque garnet color is followed by a fabulous nose of cedar sweet leather black fruits prunes and roasted walnuts refreshing underlying acidity sweet but noticeable tannin and a spicy finish. This powerful vigorous immensely impressive concentrated Latour has reached its plateau of maturity where it will remain for another 10-20 years. RP”
Every detail we hold on this bottle, in one place, so you know exactly what is going into your cellar.
Château Latour is one of Bordeaux's – and the world's – most famous wine producers. It is situated in the southeast corner of the Pauillac commune on the border of Saint-Julien, in the Médoc region. Rated as a First Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, it has become one of the most sought-after and expensive wine producers on the planet, and produces powerfully structured Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant wines capable of lasting many decades.
The site has been occupied since 1331, with a fort and garrison to guard the estuary. Several smallholdings began to grow vines, and wine from the site gained recognition from Montaigne as early as the 16th Century. The original tower no longer exists; the famous tower featured on the label was designed as a pigeon roost and built around 1620.
