Les Forts de Latour 2015 (12 BT)

Les Forts de Latour 2015  

Pauillac 

Original tissues, these bottles were released from the cellar of Chateau Latour in 2021 

Cabernet Sauvignon 63%, Merlot 35.6%, Petit Verdot 0.9%, Cabernet Franc 0.5%.  40% of production.  One plot of Merlot that usually goes into the 'grand vin' went into Les Forts this year. Archetypal cedary/spicy nose.  Immensely deep, dense and aromatic.  So coffee and chocolate on the palate, with rich black liquorice and wine gums, plus lovely fresh acidity.  Spot-on stuff.  Serena Sutcliffe, MW
