2010 Chateau Latour – First Growth Pauillac Masterpiece

The 2010 Chateau Latour is a monumental First Growth Bordeaux, exemplifying the precision, power, and longevity that define this legendary estate. From the gravel-rich soils of Pauillac, this wine captures the essence of a near-perfect vintage, offering incredible depth and structure for long-term aging.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, and cedar unfold into layers of violets, liquorice, and a touch of tobacco leaf. The palate is dense yet precise, delivering flavors of dark berries, charcoal, and crushed stones. Firm tannins and vibrant acidity frame a long, mineral-driven finish that speaks to the wine’s pedigree and aging potential.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The 2010 blend consists of **90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot**, matured in **100% new French oak barrels**. Château Latour’s Grand Vin is sourced exclusively from the estate’s oldest vines within the renowned Enclos, a walled vineyard that has been the heart of Latour’s identity for centuries.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2010 Château Latour is widely regarded as one of the finest Bordeaux wines of the modern era, a true collector’s gem with a perfect score from Robert Parker. Its rarity, aging potential, and critical acclaim make it a cornerstone for serious collectors and investors alike. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Specifics & Accolades

The **2010 vintage** in Bordeaux is legendary, producing wines of exceptional structure, balance, and depth, particularly for Cabernet-based blends on the Left Bank.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2010 Latour is deep garnet in color, and—WOW—it erupts from the glass with powerful crème de cassis, Black Forest cake and blackberry pie scents plus intense sparks of dried roses, cigar boxes, fragrant earth and smoked meats with aniseed and crushed rocks wafts. Full-bodied, concentrated and oh-so-decadent in the mouth, it has a firm, grainy texture and lovely freshness carrying the rich, opulent fruit to an epically long finish. It is incredibly tempting to drink now, but I suspect this hedonic experience isn't a scratch on the mind-blowing, otherworldly secrets this time capsule will have to reveal given another 7-10 years in bottle and continuing over the following fifty years++.

Vinous

The 2010 Latour can be summed up in two words: "The king.'' It convincingly asserts its superiority over other 2010s, including First Growths, in terms of its aromatic complexity, precision, balance, intensity, complexity and persistence. Simply a faultless Latour that ranks among its greatest achievements. Tasted from an ex-chateau bottle at the Bl Wines & Spirits 10-Year On tasting.
