This is the second wine of Chateau Latour but make no mistake, this isn’t a juvenile version or copycat, defining itself in quality and soaring above its more lowly status. The blend for 2010 is 72.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22.5% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot, finding a guttural tannin profile, imbued with stone-like minerality and trimmed with freshening acidity. It’s a wine that’s thankfully approachable in youth, but will cellar for 30-odd years, evolving into a mellow, more plush example of Pauillac wines from the famed parent estate.
