2023, Château Latour à Pomerol, AOC POMEROL

Last Year EP $116.00-

This famous Pomerol Chateau is on the plateau and planted with 100% Merlot. It has been farmed and managed since 1962 by JP Moueix.

This is structured and focused, with firm tannins and a polished texture. Seamless and long with medium to full body. Deep and layered on the palate, building to a rather muscular finish. Big at the end. Almost rustic in style. 100% merlot.
94-95 James Suckling.

The 2023 Latour à Pomerol has a concentrated nose with more opulent black fruit laced than I anticipated, laced with violet and iris flower. Marine notes simmer in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, ripe red fruit, a caressing mouthfeel, fine acidity and a dash of spice toward the finish. It's a generous and open-knit Pomerol that will give a lot of pleasure.
91-93 Neal Martin

Plummy fruit character on the nose, and velvety depths to the colour, plenty of black fruits to sink into, and a textured Pomerol embrace. Acidities are a little fresh, but there is a sense of energy and a kick on the finish.
