Château Latour à Pomerol is one of the appellation's iconic estates, located in the heart of the Pomerol plateau, where gravel and clay soils give Merlot its deepest and most seductive expression. The property's history dates back to the 19th century, and since then its name has been associated with wines that combine intensity, refinement, and an extraordinary ability to evolve over time.
The Pomerol 2016 is a vintage of great balance and complexity. In the glass, it presents a dense and bright ruby color. The nose opens with intense aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, and blackberry, enriched by elegant nuances of violet, sweet spices, cocoa, and a slight earthy note that evokes the character of the terroir.
On the palate, it is rich and enveloping, with velvety yet powerful tannins, perfectly balanced by a lively freshness that supports the sip. The finish is long and layered, with fruit, minerality, and delicate spicy nuances emerging at the end. It is a great Pomerol wine, capable of thrilling today and offering extraordinary evolution with bottle aging.
