85 Wine Spectator
Aromas of tobacco, berry and coffee follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with plummy flavors and a soft, caressing finish. Slightly tight now. Better than when previously reviewed. Best after 2005. 13,330 cases made. ?JS

Producer
Château La Louvière
Nestled in Bordeaux’s winemaking cradle, Château La Louvière can be found in Pessac-Léognan, just several kilometers from the city. Benefiting from a long vinous history of over seven centuries, the current château was built by Jean-Baptiste Mareilhac during the French Revolution. By 1965 the neoclassical château was purchased by André Lurton, who worked to restore the estate’s former glory. Terroir-based vineyard management, environmentally-friendly viticultural practices, and traditional winemaking methods coupled with the judicious use of modern techniques enable La Louvière to produce dry white and red wines of great character.
