Forts de Latour (BIO ORGANIC) 2020

AVAILABLE IN OWC 6, OWC 3 or OWC 1 Château Latour , with origins dating back to 1331, is set in the heart of the Médoc, about 50 km northwest of Bordeaux—the birthplace of Bordeaux’s legendary vineyards. Les Forts de Latour takes its name from a historic plot within the estate. The care devoted to this wine by our teams is the same as that given to the Grand Vin, reflecting a constant pursuit of quality since its creation in 1966. Its historic vineyards, Petit-Batailley and Saint-Anne, are located at the heart of the Pauillac Grand Cru Classé appellation. They are now complemented by the perimeter of the Enclos and by young plantings from this exceptional terroir overlooking the Gironde estuary. This ensemble is further enhanced by a highly qualitative 7-hectare plot situated on gravel terraces in the commune of Artigues. The specific characteristics of its original vineyard require careful management of new oak during aging—around 60%—to preserve finesse and elegance while developing the rounding of its tannins. The 2020 vintage: The 2020 vintage, marked by 53 consecutive days with almost no rain between June and July, framed by significant rainfall in spring and August, allowed the production of exceptionally high-quality juice. Perfectly balanced between power and freshness, it stands among the great successes of the decade.
