Château Latour: 2022 New Releases
BY ANTONIO GALLONI |
Latour fans will want to be on the lookout for the château’s 2022 new releases. The 2016 Forts de Latour is fabulous, while the 2014 Grand Vin captures all of the finesse of a vintage I have always regarded highly, especially on the Left Bank, where near-ideal conditions in September saved a year that was not looking so promising during a summer marked by above average rainfall, lower than average temperatures and elevated disease pressure. I tasted all of the wines with Technical Director Hélène Genin during a recent visit to the château, my first trip to Bordeaux in two years.
