Parker about Château Latour Grand Vin Imperial 6,0l 2011

A blend of 84.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 0.5% Petit Verdot, the 2011 Latour represents only 34% of the crop. It hits 13.1% natural alcohol. One of the vintage's most compelling wines, it possesses a dense ruby/purple color as well as a sweet, open-knit personality with ripe tannin, superb intensity, good purity and harmony, a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and lots of crushed rock, floral and black as well as blue fruit notes in addition to hints of ink and forest floor. This beautifully rich, savory Latour will be surprisingly drinkable in 4-5 years, and should age easily for two decades or more. By the way, Latour harvested relatively late for the Medoc, beginning the harvest on September 12 and finishing on September 26.

Produktbeschreibung

Château Latour Grand Vin Imperial 6,0l 2011


Château Latour Grand Vin 2011 is a remarkable wine from the Bordeaux region of France and an iconic Château Latour. Although the 2011 vintage was considered difficult, the winery created a wine of remarkable quality and character.

On the nose, the Château Latour Grand Vin 2011 unfolds a captivating bouquet of ripe black fruits. Aromas of black currants, cassis, and dark cherries dominate, accompanied by notes of cedarwood, tobacco, and spices. There are also subtle nuances of graphite and pencil shavings, characteristic of wines from this renowned estate.

On the palate, the Château Latour Grand Vin 2011 presents itself with impressive structure and complexity. The ripe fruit aromas unfold full-bodied and are accompanied by supple tannins that lend the wine a beautiful texture and richness. The acidity is well balanced, lending the wine freshness and vibrancy. The finish is long and persistent, with a remarkable persistence of dark fruits, spices, and a subtle mineral note.

Although the 2011 vintage was not one of the best in Bordeaux, the Château Latour Grand Vin 2011 nevertheless demonstrates the winery's ability to produce outstanding wines even in challenging years. With its impressive structure, elegance, and longevity, this wine is a true delight. Decanting the wine before drinking is recommended to allow it to fully open and develop its full aromas.
