Vintage 2008 description:
If we had to have one single chateau in our portfolio it would be Latour. Sexy, strong, full of promise and weighted by reputation, Latour is Latour. This 2008 vintage is pure class, unquestionably in the top handful of wines in the vintage. This beautifully defined wine is medium-bodied with firm in tannin, which will contribute to beautiful ageing. As usual with Latour, the investment potential lies in the wine’s longevity - expect at least 2-3 decades of cellaring for spectacular returns.
Producer description:
Latour. The name needs no introduction yet speaks volumes. This wine is one of the blue chip wines of Bordeaux. As a first growth, it has vast crowd pulling power, every release is eagerly awaited and is packed full of promise. But these wines are not just covetable for their star status. As the producer no longer sells at En-Primeur stage, anticipation for bottle releases is high. Latour is viewed one of the best in Bordeaux, with the unerring ability to produce superb wine in even in difficult years. This five-star producer has guaranteed investment appeal and makes an excellent addition to any portfolio.
