Vinous

The 2020 Latour à Pomerol is a powerful, deep wine marked by strong savory and vegetal notes. En primeur, Latour à Pomerol showed a lack of cohesion. Time has only amplified that. Today, the 2020 is both overripe and green, suggesting that neither of the two main blocks were picked at the optimal time. Angular contours are impossible to look past. 12/2022

The 2020 Latour à Pomerol has retained a very similar bouquet to the one that I encountered from barrel with blackberry, loam and pencil box scents, perhaps one of the most Médocian noses that I have observed in this Pomerol even though paradoxically it is 100% Merlot! The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. Fine build though it remains compact and linear, finally fanning out in its final third. There is a touch of chewiness just on the finish, but I feel this is developing the substance and structure for long-term ageing. 12/2022

In the 2019 vintage, this estate was a highlight of the Mouiex portfolio, and the 2020 Latour à Pomerol is a terrific follow-up. Bursting with aromas of cherries, dark berries, licorice, black truffle and petroleum jelly, it's medium to full-bodied, with a broad attack that segues into a rich core of fruit that's framed by sweet, powdery tannins. 04/2023

Couleur pourpre et vive. Nez moyennement aromatique, au fruité mûr. Bouche tendre, fruitée, savoureuse et agréable, un peu discrète en finale. Fruité très mûr. 100 % merlot.

The black olives and dark fruit come through on the nose with violets and wet earth. Full and very chunky and powerful. Yet it’s lively and vivid with excellent energy. Fantastic. Pure merlot. Leave it until 2030. 11/2023
