2015 Pauillac de Ch Latour
Buying options
Tasting Notes
Plush red and black plums soar out of the glass, complimented by blackberries, red and black cherries and a beautifully lifted menthol note. On the palate, this is nicely balanced, an elegant red with a sense of power to the pure juicy fruit. Framed by silky tannins and an opulent finish, this is a joy to taste now, though will really show its true promise after a few years in the cellar.

Latour's 2015 Pauillac is gorgeous. Deep, pliant and super-expressive, the 2015 is utterly captivating. Silky tannins wrap around a core of fruit as this radiant, inviting wine shows off its charms. There is a level of purity to the 2015 that is remarkable. In the past, the Pauillac has at times been a bit wild. In 2015, it is the brightness of the fruit that makes the deepest impression.
A firm and linear red with currant, blackberry and stone aromas and flavors. Full yet closed and tight. Acidity drives this one. Third wine of Pauillac. Serious. Needs two or three years to come together.
