94 Points, James Suckling

"Easily the best Pauillac de Latour in recent years, showing supple tannins at five years old, textured and rippling with juice..."
93 Points, Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

"...wonderfully deep, fleshy Pauillac. Deep and resonant, with fine balance, the 2019 captures all the natural radiance of the year. This is really quite stellar and delicious."
93 Points, Vinous

"...plushness and polish to the tannins, and fresh red fruits that provide richness and length on the palate..."
93 Points, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

"The full-bodied palate is plush and oh-so-juicy, with a lively line to balance, and a fantastically intense, yet well-poised, finish."
93 Points, The Wine Independent

"A rocking little Pauillac...supple, layered, nicely balanced wine that has enough tannins to evolve for 20 years or more."
92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
Dear Artisans,

You won't find Profound and Pedigreed Pauillac for Pennies on the Dollar—until today.

The owners of Chateau Latour also own what they consider the 'American First-Growth' Eisele Vineyard (formerly Araujo). Our partnership earned us 24 bottles of Latour's third label: 2019 Pauillac de Latour. Our allocation arrives this July, but will sell out well before then. This wine is utterly sublime, in fact, the entire collection we tasted blew our collection minds:
  • More info: Chateau Latour is situated in the heart of the MĂ©doc wine region, about 50 km north-west of Bordeaux, where the legend of the vineyards of Bordeaux began. The Chateau’s prime terroir, l’Enclos, overlooks the Gironde estuary which, over the centuries, has given the vineyard its geological complexity and, on a daily basis, ensures a mild climate. Many have called this the best vineyard in the world and the dynamic Director of Chateau Latour, FrĂ©dĂ©ric Engerer, is determined to make the greatest wines possible. He has the confidence of owner, François Pinault, to do all that it takes to achieve this aim. Certified organic as of the 2018 vintage, according to Wine Advocate's William Kelley, "Unremitting perfectionism and attention to detail are the order of the day at Château Latour, so it's no surprise that this great estate has delivered some of the finest wines of the vintage in Bordeaux."

We have to stress again that only 24 bottles are coming this July, which will be pre-sold shortly. Move fast!

Cheers,
—James Tran
2019 Chateau Latour "Le Pauillac de Latour"
94 Points - James Suckling:
"This has chocolate, cedar and walnuts as well as some currant aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with some lovely fruit and juiciness. 55.8% cabernet sauvignon, 38.8% merlot and 5.4% petit verdot. Attractive now but another year or two will make it even better."

93 Points - Vinous:
"The 2019 Pauillac is a serious wine. Dark cherry, plum, gravel, incense, licorice and pomegranate are all dialed up in this wonderfully deep, fleshy Pauillac. Deep and resonant, with fine balance, the 2019 captures all the natural radiance of the year. This is really quite stellar and delicious. A recent bottle of the 2009 reminded me how pleasurable the Latour Pauillac can be. Drink 2029-2036."

93 Points - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider:
"Cigar box, cherry blossoms, and black with red, earthy currants are quick to find. Medium-bodied, with a plushness and polish to the tannins, and fresh red fruits that provide richness and length on the palate with ample bright, red fruits in the finish. The wine blends 55.8% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38.8% Merlot and 5.4% Petit Verdot, 14.8% ABV. Drink from 2025-2040."

93 Points - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux:
"Easily the best Pauillac de Latour in recent years, showing supple tannins at five years old, textured and rippling with juice, opening to show gourmet smoked plum and blueberry fruit. Has the graphite edge of the appellation, waves of cocoa bean, liqourice and smoked earth, and the balance of 2019. The structure is already welcoming, even if the fruit young, and if you like your wines on the primary side, you can get stuck in straight away and be very happy about it - this is a buy buy buy, and a good upgrade from my initial En Primeur score. 44hl/h yield, almost double that of 2018, which no doubt helps with the juicy character."

93 Points - The Wine Independent:
"A blend of 55.8% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38.8% Merlot, and 5.4% Petit Verdot, Le Pauillac de Chateau Latour 2019 is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. It comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant notes of black cherries, blackcurrant jelly, and menthol, plus suggestions of garrigue, candied violets, and dark chocolate. The full-bodied palate is plush and oh-so-juicy, with a lively line to balance, and a fantastically intense, yet well-poised, finish. Just starting to open-out and reveal its decadent core, this is the best Pauillac de Chateau Latour since the fabulous 2016, albeit even more concentrated and powerful—a fitting reflection of Latour, if you will. 2024-2039."

92 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:
"A rocking little Pauillac, the 2019 Le Pauillac De Château Latour has ripe, upfront aromatics of red and black currants, smoke tobacco, and spicy wood that carry to a medium-bodied, supple, layered, nicely balanced wine that has enough tannins to evolve for 20 years or more. 2024 - 2045."

2019 Tetre-Roteboeuf, Saint Emilion
Right Bank
7 Bottles available.
97 Points - Robert Parker's WA:
"The 2019 Le Tertre Roteboeuf is a terrific success from the Mitjaville family. This amphitheatrical vineyard on the clay-limestone slopes of Saint-Laurent-des-Combes, planted with low, cordon-trained vines, has delivered a striking wine that wafts from the glass with aromas of cassis, blackberries and cherries mingled with notions of violets, cigar box, sweet spices and loamy soil. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a deep core of fruit, velvety tannins and lively acids, it will richly reward a decade and more of bottle age. Interestingly, proprietor François Mitjaville contended that 2019's distribution of rainfall had tended to invert the usual stylistic distinction between Tertre Roteboeuf and Roc de Cambes, his wine from the Côtes de Bourg; yet, on the day of our tasting, geology trumped weather, because as usual the former was more sensual, the latter blockier and more structured." - William Kelly (April 2022)

99 Points - James Suckling:
"A very powerful and structured Cos. It’s full and layered, but not overpowering in terms of fruit. It’s more about the abundant, very fine tannins. It’s a classic wine with historical grip and power. Real Bordeaux. Sophisticated and provocative." - (May 2020)

21 x 750 mL bottles available
99 Points - James Suckling:
"A very tight, compact red that shows wonderful precision and definition with lots of blackberries, blueberries, stones and black tea. The sorting and de-stemming was all done by hand. Love the sensibility to this. Superb length and finesse. Subtle and sophisticated. No pumping over and gentle pushing down. Handmade. Very exciting and thought-provoking. Very long. 35% in amphora and the rest in 50% new oak and 15% one-year oak. 65% cabernet sauvignon and 30% merlot, the rest cabernet franc and petit verdot. Biodynamic grapes." (May 2020)

99 Points #2 Top 100 of 2022 - James Suckling:
"Extremely aromatic, with incredible wet-earth, bark, stone and graphite notes on the nose, then changing to violets, blackberries and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, yet so linear and fine, with titanium tannins that go on so long. Builds and builds then just rolls around the palate through the endless finish. Real Bordeaux here. 56% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot, 4% cabernet franc, and 4% petit verdot. Exceptional. Better after 2029." (Dec 2022)
