Chateau Latour à Pomerol 1995

Chateau Latour à Pomerol is another fine wine estate run by Moueix family, owner of Chateau Trotanoy and Petrus. Latour à Pomerol has been producing outstanding Pomerol wines for over 200 years, its 1961 is still one of the most expensive wines in various auctions. 

Robert Parker: “Several years in the bottle could result in an excellent, perhaps outstanding Latour-à-Pomerol.” Well, he was right. The 1995 Latour-à-Pomerol has blossomed into a great wine. Initially it seems a little mundane on the nose, but do not be deceived because it unfolds and offers lovely tobacco and cedar notes that might take you to Pessac-Léognan rather than Pomerol. The palate is very well proportioned, quite structured for a 1995 with much more body and substance than its 1996 counterpart. Hints of iodine sweep across the senses towards the finish that again, dupes you into thinking it might be from Pessac-Léognan. Whatever, it is an impressive Pomerol that after two decades is delivering the goods. And you know, it might improve even further.”
