2013 Chateau Latour
Description
A blend of 95.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4.7% Merlot, the 2013 Latour represents only 31.5% of the total crop. It is a surprisingly soft, charming, fruit-forward Latour with moderate concentration, a deep ruby/purple color, and no herbaceousness. Although not terribly deep or rich, it is an excellent effort that will not hit the market for another 5-7 years given their new policy of holding Chateau Latour until it is deemed ready for sale.

Tasting note
2013年的拉圖酒莊展現了波亞克葡萄酒的優雅與細膩。酒精度13%，這款酒的香氣中充滿了成熟的黑果香，伴隨著薄荷、鼠尾草和八角的異國情調。酒體偏中等，但絲毫不影響其優雅和餘韻的長度。口感上，濃郁的鹹香黑果味道，帶來非常好的尾韻。建議醒酒約兩小時，以充分展現其複雜性。這款酒非常適合搭配烤羊肉、威靈頓牛排、蘑菇燴飯和陳年起司等佳餚。
The 2013 Chateau Latour is a testament to the elegance and finesse that Pauillac wines can offer. With an alcohol content of 13%, this wine presents a ripe dark fruity nose, interwoven with exotic hints of mint, sage, and aniseed. It leans towards the medium-bodied spectrum, ensuring that its inherent elegance and length are uncompromised. The palate is graced with dense, savoury dark fruit, culminating in a very good length. Decanting for approximately two hours is recommended to fully appreciate its complexity. This wine pairs beautifully with dishes such as roast lamb, Beef Wellington, mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses.
