Les Forts de Latour is primarily sourced from dedicated parcels located outside Château Latour’s historic L’Enclos vineyard, including vines adjacent to Château Haut-Batailley. This 2019 vintage is a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot. The estate was certified organic in 2018, and this vintage was crafted following the same meticulous care as the Grand Vin. It was aged in 70% new French oak barrels.
Tasting Notes
“Exquisite aromas of lavender, cigar ash and Spanish cedar with dried citrus follow through to a medium body and a solid palate with powerful, ultrafine and linear tannins. The muscle and long finish are so beautiful. The 2019 is an especially somber Forts endowed with tons of richness as well as structure… Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, graphite, sage and mocha build into the substantial finish. The 2019 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine.” – Score 97 – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, Jan 2025
Serving Suggestions
Pairs best with robust dishes such as beef, lamb, venison, or a hard mature cheddar cheese.
