Château Latour à Pomerol 2000 Red (Pomerol)
- $75
In 2000, this was still the property of Lily Lacoste, who also owned Pétrus. Latour à Pomerol was sold in 2001 to a Catholic charity. The management, then and now, is with the Moueix family who make the most of the fabulous vineyard. The 2000 is a hugely opulent, velvet textured wine, but it retains hints of the elegance that is the hallmark of this property.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2009 Red (Pomerol)
Opulent and ripe fruit that shows all the richness of the vintage. It has weight, spice and delicious red berry fruits. The tannins are certainly dense, but, oh, so sweet.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2006 Red (Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
Licorice, chocolate and black plums all show immediately in this rich, dense wine. Sweet tannins combine with fresh tobacco smokiness over jammy, ripe fruit. This array of flavors is kept in check by the over-arching acidity.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2010 Red (Pomerol)
- $190
Solidly based on its firm tannins, this is an impressive wine. Acidity and blackberry fruits are sewn together by the tannic structure. There is a touch of minerality as well, lending the wine to the promise of long-term aging.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2005 Barrel sample Red (Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
90-92 Barrel sample. Another huge Pomerol. But like other wines vinified by Christian Moueix, this has a fine sense of balance, its softly extracted tannins and dry fruits paired with deliciously fresh blueberry flavors.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2004 Red (Pomerol)
A big, dry wine, firm, and not offering much fruit at this stage. It is obviously concentrated, and as it evolves, the fruit will develop richness. This small, 20-acre property is mainly situated on gravel soils next to Pomerol church, at the heart of the appellation.

Château Latour à Pomerol 2006 Barrel sample Red (Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
90—92 Barrel sample. Complex, this is a wine that is slashed through with fresh fruit, but that only enhance the dense tannins and solid structure. Yet it preserves a lightness and freshness.
