A Forever First Growth

The 2009 Château Latour Pauillac is one of the greatest Bordeaux ever bottled. 

Grown in perhaps the Médoc’s top vintage of all time, it earned 100 points TWICE from Wine Advocate: First, Robert Parker himself proclaimed it “one of the most monumental Latours ever made.” Nearly a decade later, his colleague Lisa Perrotti-Brown concurred with the perfect score. 

“This is our children's children's children's elixir,” wrote Parker about the 2009’s longevity. Indeed, it’s the kind of wine that should not only anchor your collection, but inspire you to think far beyond the normal 20–40 year time frame we usually associate with great collectible wines. “Will it last one-hundred years?” Parker mused in his review. “No doubt about it. Can it be drunk in a decade? For sure.” 

We have twelve bottles of this monumental wine coming straight from the château. They ship immediately, and we look forward to matching them with our most far-sighted collectors.

A cool and wet start to the 2009 growing season in Bordeaux gave way to a long, dry summer of above-average temperatures. The deep, gravelly soils of Pauillac yielded small, ripe, and exceptionally concentrated berries, and the early consensus among critics was that the vintage had the potential to rival the very best. 

A blend of 91% Cabernet and the rest Merlot, the 2009 was released nearly a decade on, and it’s JUST at the front edge of its drinking window. It will continue to develop aromatic complexity and depth of flavor for as long as you care to imagine. 

This is a cellar-defining bottle, and we’re proud to bring it to you, straight from Château Latour.
