They're Released! Chateau Latour 2015 and Forts de Latour 2017

Chateau Latour 2015 and Forts de Latour 2017 have just been released and Chateau Latour received a massive 98 points from Lisa Perrotti-Brown who said this wine is“intellectual and sexy”, it promises to be up there with the great vintages from this famous first growth. Comparing the Vintage 2015 with two absolute benchmark vintages from Bordeaux and Chateau Latour, this 2015, therefore, looks like a very attractive addition to the portfolio.

Chateau Latour 2015 (OWC1)
HK$5,300 per bottle
98pts Wine Advocate
Blended of 97.1% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2.6% Merlot and 0.3% Petit Verdot, the deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Latour is exquisitely perfumed, displaying fragrant notes of crushed black cherries, raspberry preserves, cassis and black plums with nuances of roses, dark chocolate, garrigue, menthol and a waft of sandalwood. The medium-bodied palate beautifully struts its taut, toned, muscular fruit with a frame of very firm, smooth, rounded tannins and compelling freshness, finishing with alluring earth and mineral layers. At once intellectual and sexy, this truly evocative vintage brings to mind the Melanie Griffith line from “Working Girl," possessing a sultry “head for business and a bod for sin." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
 
Forts de Latour 2017 (OWC1)
HK$1,620 per bottle
94pts Wine Advocate
A blend of 65.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 0.8% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2017 Les Forts de Latour is deep garnet-purple in color and strides confidently out of the glass with classic notes of plum preserves, warm cassis, and pencil shavings with nuances of mulberries, pencil lead, Indian spices, and forest floor. Medium-bodied, the palate packs a lot of fruit into a very elegant, tightly knit palate, delivering expressive blackberry and spicy flavors with a firm frame of grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing long with a peppery kick. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
