The discovery and analysis of ancient archives at Château Latour, in the early 60's, allowed historians to accurately reconstruct the Estate's past from 1331 on. This exceptional work allows one now to better understand the unique qualities that make Latour truly special.
When one evokes the name Château Latour, one immediately thinks of a fortified tower built on the banks of an estuary overlooking the water, the vines and the marshes. This tower really did exist and a glorious past is attached to it.
Located in the famous Medoc wine region, about 40 kilometers north-west of the city of Bordeaux, the vineyard of Château Latour belongs to the Pauillac appellation. The quality of its wine depends partly on the type of grape variety that is being used, but also on the exceptional combination of natural elements (geography, geology and climate) that constitutes its "Terroir".
