Château Latour Vertical Collection
(1945 - 2005)
Chateau Latour is luxurious. It is well known for its consistency in producing great wines even in mediocre vintages. For many, Chateau Latour is a leading First Growth and definitely one of Bordeaux’s most concentrated.
While the vineyard of Chateau Latour was created around the 1680s, the history of the estate dates as far back as the 1300s. The fact that the estate has lived through what seems like an eternity to us appears to be reflected in the quality of the wine – Chateau Latour’s incredible ageing potential makes it almost timeless.
The Chateau Latour Vertical Collection consists of 1 bottle of each vintage from 1945 to 2005. A beautiful series of inspiring wines. Simply classy.
