Chateau Latour à Pomerol 2022

Chateau Latour a’ Pomerol has a long history in the region that dates all the way back to the mid or late 1800’s when the wine was sold under the name of La-Tour-Pomerol. It was acquired by Madame Loubat, who also owned Château Petrus, in 1917. Jean-Pierre Moueix has farmed the vineyard since 1962 and it was the Lacoste family who retained the estate until 2002, after which it was donated to the Fondation de Foyers de Charite de Chateauneuf de Galaure, a charity. However, the high quality of the wines produced by Latour a’ Pomerol went without much notice until they were written about by the famed wine critic, Robert Parker.

Aromas of sweet cherries, baked plums, liquorice and cigar wrapper introduce the 2022 Latour à Pomerol, a medium to fullbodied, rich and creamy wine that's ripe and supple, with soft tannins that assert themselves on the finish. 93 points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate.
