Smooth, polished and supple, with a nice range of plum, cherry and exotic spices. The velvety finish echoes fruit and spice. Best now through 2005.--Latour ? Pomerol vertical. ?HS

I continue to see a resemblance in the rich, full-bodied, concentrated, ripe, and sexy 1985 to the brilliant wine made at this estate in 1970. Full, long, and powerful, this expansively flavored wine has considerable length and plenty of tannin, and will require some cellaring prior to consumption. Anticipated maturity: Now-2005. Last tasted, 3/89.

Château Latour à Pomerol
Château Latour à Pomerol is another property that fits under the renowned JP Moueix family umbrella. While the ownership of the estate resides with a charitable foundation, the Fondation de Foyers de Charite de Chateauneuf de Galaure, Ets. Jean-Pierre Moueix has acted as manager of the château for over 40 years. Along with the family’s other top Bordeaux châteaux, Latour à Pomerol has become one of the leading Pomerol vineyards. The 8-hectare vineyard is made up of two parcels: the first, Les Grandes Vignes, is situated close to the church of Pomerol; the second is located on the western side of the Pomerol Plateau. The charming cru, like many Right Bank wines, remained relatively unknown until the budding wine critic, Robert Parker wrote about it in the early 1990s. Today, Château Latour à Pomerol’s wines offer a more opulent expression of the appellation, producing supple, ripe and richly plummy Merlot and Cabernet Franc blends.
