    Producer

    The vineyard of Château Latour It covers approximately 78 hectares, cultivated primarily with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The soil, composed of a mixture of clay and limestone, promotes optimal drainage, essential for the ripening of the grapes. climat The region's oceanic climate, with its hot summers and mild winters, allows for a slow and even ripening of the grapes, thus contributing to the concentration of aromas and the balance of the wine. Each plot is carefully chosen to express the quintessence of the Pauillac terroir.

    Owner and history

The heart of the terroir – the Enclos (47 hectares) – lies on the banks of the Gironde estuary. The vines thus benefit from the oceanic climate while being protected from the cold. Cabernet Sauvignon makes up more than 95% of the blend.
