Château Latour à Pomerol

Pomerol AOP

Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix

Der 2023 Château Latour ist ein kraftvoll-zupackender Wein aus Pomerol, der auf Augenhöhe mit Saint-Émilion nobelsten Appellation der Rive Droite. Typisch Pomerol ist dies ein reiner Merlot, der sich hier allerdings nicht von seinen feminin zarten Seite, sondern als jugendlicher, muskulöser Wein zeigt, der mit intensiven Aromen, dicht gewobener Tannintextur und kräftigen Fruchtaromen aufwartet.

Jean-Pierre Moueix's "fermage" of this estate began in 1962, and his eponymous firm has only just acquired ownership of the vineyards to produce the 2023 Latour à Pomerol, which gives one a sense of how long it can take to acquire land in Pomerol! Offering up aromas of minty cherries, cassis, rose petals and petroleum jelly, the wine is medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a generous core of sun-kissed fruit, sweet, powdery tannins and a broad, penetrating finish.

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.

The 2023 Latour à Pomerol is a powerful wine. Swaths of tannin make a strong opening impression. There's plenty of fruit behind all that structure, but this is a wine that could go either way during élevage. In other words, it may come together more fully, or not.
