2022 Chateau Latour a Pomerol

Already shows very classy aromas of black berries, currants and black olives. Violets and other dried flowers. Full-bodied yet tight and polished with a reserved and muscular form, with finesse at the same time. New 1982? Pure merlot. ~ (98) James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 4-19-2023

The 2022 Latour à Pomerol wafts from the glass with aromas of sweet cherries, red berries, licorice and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a sweet core of fruit, polished tannins and a ripe but lively profile, this is a fine effort. ~ (94) William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 4-28-2023

All Merlot from a small eight hectares of gravelly, clay soils, the 2022 Château Latour A Pomerol offers up a vivid purple hue as well as beautiful aromatics of ripe black cherries, blackberries, chocolaty herbs, and loamy earth. It's medium to full-bodied, has plenty of concentration, building, ripe tannins, and a great finish. ~ (94) Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com 5-10-2023

Rich but fresh with well-integrated oak lending spice notes to the red-fruit aroma. Ample fruit and fine, silky tannins. Should evolve well. ~ (16.5) James Lawther, JancisRobinson.com 5-5-2023
