Château Latour 2008
Pauillac - Bordeaux - Red Wine
Parker 96/100
Wine Spectator 94/100
J. Robinson 18,5/20
This wine is one of the most sought after and famous because it is produced from the best vineyards of Enclos, the incomparable historical terroir around Château Latour. Up to 4 grape varieties can be used in the composition of this Pauillac wine.
A very rich wine but which can be characterized in three words: depth, elegance and concentration.
The 2008 vintage is a classic vintage close to 2006 and 2004. Exceptional quality, rich, tense, silky tannins ... It can still wait for 10 years.
The advice of 12bouteilles: The wine is enough on its own, start your dinner with a foie gras and this masterpiece. If you are more for an apotheosis finale, a county (36 months of refining).
