Château Latour is one of Pauillac’s great historical landmarks and is among the five Premiers Grands Crus Classés of Bordeaux. Its prestigious vineyard, located next to the Gironde estuary, sits on deep gravel soils that are particularly favorable for growing Cabernet Sauvignon—the predominant variety in its blends—accompanied mainly by Merlot. The 1996 vintage is considered one of the great classic vintages of Bordeaux’s Left Bank, particularly noted for the quality of its Cabernet Sauvignon. Château Latour 1996 is renowned for its extraordinary structure, depth, and aging potential—qualities that rank it among the most coveted wines of its decade and make it a particularly sought-after reference for collectors.
