About this wine
Château Latour-à-Pomerol, Pomerol
Château Latour-à-Pomerol is one of the leading Pomerol properties and - while unclassified - one of the great crus of the Gironde. Latour-à-Pomerol consists of just under 8 hectares of vineyards split into two plots: the first is known as Les Grandes Vignes and is located on a gravel outpost next to the Church of Pomerol. The second plot lies on sandy, lighter soils and is to be found on the western side of the Pomerol plateau. Latour a Pomerol's grapes (90% merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc) are hand harvested and then fermented in temperature controlled concrete vats. The wine is then matured in small oak barrels (50% new) for 18 months. It is bottled unfiltered. Latour á Pomerol produces sumptuous, meaty, concentrated and full-bodied Pomerols that often require at least 10 years of cellaring. In the context of other top class Pomerols they remain underpriced.

Cocoa bean and coffee on the nose, firm blue plum and cassis, confidently made, teasing extraction that almost goes too long but pulls back and delivers mouth watering fruits. Acidity high, in the character of the vintage, but this is one to look out for, particularly after another year of softening ageing. 50% new oak. Harvest 17 to 28 September

The 2024 Latour à Pomerol was picked September 17 to 28 and aged in 50% new oak. It has what you might describe as a "sedate" bouquet that unfurls in the glass with blackberry and minty notes, perhaps just lacking some delineation and éclat (brightness). The palate is medium-bodied and a little oaky on the entry, but there is decent fruit concentration on the mid-palate and smoothness towards the finish. The question is whether there is sufficient fruit here to absorb the wood. Hopefully it will. The 2024 is just missing a bit of personality compared to others from the J-P Moueix stable.
