The 2021 Château Latour à Pomerol is a poised, classically styled Right Bank Bordeaux that showcases the elegance and finesse of Pomerol in a cooler, more restrained vintage. Crafted predominantly from Merlot with a supporting share of Cabernet Franc, this wine focuses on purity of fruit and refined tannins rather than sheer power. Long regarded as one of Pomerol’s discreet gems, Latour à Pomerol is celebrated for wines that age beautifully while offering early approachability in more delicate years like 2021. On the palate, this vintage leans into grace rather than opulence: medium to medium-plus bodied, with vibrant acidity and finely etched tannins that feel silky yet structured. Flavors of juicy plum, black cherry, and wild berries are interwoven with tobacco leaf, pencil shavings, and a touch of dark chocolate. The finish is long, fresh, and harmonious, marked by minerality and lift rather than weight. While the 2021 is approachable in its youth after a short aeration, it has the structure to evolve gracefully over 10–15 years, gaining tertiary notes of leather, forest floor, and dried flowers.
