Chateau Latour itself dates back to the 14th century but the start of its history producing wine really began with the arrival of the Segur family who, for the time, were also owners of Lafite. Latour's vineyards are situated in the South of the Pauillac appellation, bordering St Julien and are nearer to the Gironde estuary than any other 1st Growth. The micro climate thanks to its close proximity to the Gironde and the excellent drainage of the gravel soils, which are particularly deep contribute to the incredible elegance of the wines.

This is a wine that gives so much, drinking now but has great cellar potential.
