Tasting Notes

Vinous 96

The 2009 Les Forts de Latour is engaging and quite complex on the nose with blackberry, bilberry, hints of brine and freshly rolled tobacco, all very well delineated and gaining vigor with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannin that frame layers of black fruit laced with pencil lead and tobacco, very convincing on the finish that has one of the longest lengths of any Pauillac in this flight. Excellent. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2009 Bordeaux tasting. [Neal Martin, 14/03/2019]

Anticipated maturity: 2022-2045

Wine Advocate 96

2009 had a very hot, dry summer with a little rain in mid to late September. The wines are rich, opulent and generously fruited, approachable when young, though they have the substance to age beautifully. This is no exception. Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2009 Les Forts de Latour is very spicy on the nose, strutting star anise, fenugreek and cumin seed notions over a core of creme de cassis, violets, plum preserves and blueberry compote with a waft of camphor. The palate is full-bodied, rich, opulent and wonderfully velvety in the mouth with a very long, multilayered finish. [Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 23/01/2019]

Very, very dark crimson. Exotic. Dense, powdery and so dense that it’s almost impenetrable. Lots of press wine here? Tarry and liquorice and so so young! Gorgeous. [31/03/2011]

Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040

WA96-99

The French artist Gerard Garouste has created the original artwork, called “Hommage au Baron Philippe”, to illustrate the label for Château Mouton Rothschild 2022. Gérard Garouste A leading... French painter, Gérard Garouste is a stand-out figure on the international art scene. He drew his inspiration from conversations with Julien de Beaumarchais de Rothschild and from the photographs of Baron Philippe he was shown. After playing with various ideas in his sketchbooks, the idea of a portrait of Baron Philippe, accompanied by the symbols of the ram, the front wall and the vine, soon came to the fore. The work took shape as a gouache which he naturally chose to call Hommage au Baron Philippe.
