Note di degustazione
The 2019 Château Latour A Pomerol is terrific, with a spicy, savory herb, tobacco, and leather-driven bouquet as well as a rock-solid core of darker cherry and mulberry fruits. With terrific balance, ripe, velvety tannins, good mid-palate depth, and a great finish, it's another outstanding 2019 Pomerol that readers will love. It will keep for 20-25 years.

The high point in the Mouieux portfolio this year is the 2019 Latour à Pomerol, a terrific wine that wafts from the glass with aromas of cherries, sweet berries, rose petals, cigar wrapper and loamy soil. Full-bodied, ample and concentrated, it's seamless and layered, with lively acids, powdery tannins and a vibrant, beautifully balanced profile.
The 2019 Latour à Pomerol has retained its attractive, discreet nose of well-defined blackberry, wild strawberry, sage and iodine aromas, though you have to coax them out. The palate has improved since I tasted the barrel sample, but I still have reservations. This is dense, grippy and very assertive, but what is missing is a degree of finesse, personality and grace. It feels just a little "pushed" on the finish and doesn’t entice me back for another sip. I would like to retaste this in a few months' time.
The 2019 Latour à Pomerol is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel, if not more so. Creamy and expansive, the 2019 opens beautifully in the glass. Bright acids red fruit, blood orange, tar, gravel and spice build effortlessly with a bit of time. The 2019 is a wonderfully complete, polished Pomerol that will provide pleasure for many years to come.
