The 2017 Pauillac de Château Latour is such a beautiful wine. Lush, pliant and supple, with pretty top notes, the 2017 is pure class. Sweet red plum, spice, leather, cedar and tobacco are some of the many nuances that grace the exquisite Pauillac of Château Latour. All the elements fall into place in a wine of total breeding.
James Suckling: 92 Points
This has aromas of blackberries, porcini mushrooms, tobacco and charred bark. It’s medium-bodied with fine, supple tannins. Savory, with plenty of earth and mineral character. Fresh finish. Drink or hold.
Decanter: 92 Points
Concentrated black cherries on the nose, pinkish purple in the rim. Dark nose, full of blackcurrant and touches of liquorice. Smooth texture, so juicy and mouthwateringly fresh - the flavours really hit straight away - bright cherries and strawberries, hints of liquorice, mint leaf and clove giving a lovely subtle edge of spice. Feels concentrated and dense but with a really lovely succulent lift. Tannins are soft and fine grained, full of juice and life. This has impact and generosity on the palate filled with concentrated flavours and a long finish, such a lovely overall mouthfeel.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
Generous, featuring plum and cassis aromas and flavors, this pure, expressive wine glistens with floral and iron details through the focused finish. Sneakily long. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2021 through 2032.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Latour’s indecently good 2017 Le Pauillac de Château Latour bursts with fragrant aromas of creamy cassis, wild berries and plums. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and polished, it’s supple and succulent, with an enveloping core of fruit, lively acids and already melting tannins. This is already very approachable on release.
