More About 2019 Château Pauillac: Château Latour, a storied First Growth estate in Bordeaux, has a legacy that stretches back to the mid-14th century. Nestled on a sloping hillside along the Gironde Estuary, the estate benefits from a unique terroir where warm breezes protect the vines from frost. This idyllic setting, combined with centuries of winemaking expertise, has solidified Latour's position at the pinnacle of Bordeaux's history. While many Bordeaux estates produce two wines, Château Latour offers a third: Le Pauillac. Crafted from younger vines that may not quite meet the exacting standards of the Grand Vin, Le Pauillac nevertheless captures the essence of the estate's character. Produced with meticulous care, Le Pauillac presents an approachable yet refined expression of the Château Latour legacy. Typically a blend of 45% Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Petit Verdot, Le Pauillac offers an inviting introduction to the Latour family of wines—providing luxury and heritage without the Grand Vin's lofty price tag.
