Latour a Pomerol 2018 is a Right Bank Bordeaux known for Merlot-driven plushness, depth and a more understated profile than some headline Pomerol names. It works well for buyers building a serious Bordeaux selection without moving into the very top price tier.
From the Producer
Chateau Latour a Pomerol is a Right Bank Bordeaux estate in the Pomerol appellation — a distinct estate from the Pauillac First Growth Château Latour despite the shared name. At roughly 800 hectares, Pomerol is the smallest of Bordeaux's wine-producing areas and, unlike the Médoc or Saint-Émilion, has no official growth classification; its wines are built on Merlot, typically blended with Cabernet Franc, over the appellation's clay and gravel soils.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Black plum, cherry liqueur, cocoa, truffle and cedar.
- Palate: Rounded and velvety, with dark fruit concentration, supple tannin and earthy depth.
- Finish: Long and polished, with plum, cocoa and savoury Pomerol character.
Best For
A good fit for beef, duck, mushroom dishes and buyers who want classic Right Bank texture.
