We are pleased to announce the 2005 Château Latour ex-château, recent library release — a best-of-the-vintage wine, achieving 100-points from Antonio Galloni:
The 2005 Latour is mind-blowingly profound. Deep and sensual to the core, the 2005 is utterly captivating. All the elements are so seamlessly put together. Graphite, crème de cassis, licorice, dark spice and lavender infuse the 2005 with so much energy. More than anything else, though, the 2005 is a Latour of texture and resonance. Even after several hours, the 2005 is fresh and full of energy. Wines like this are just life-affirming.” (April 2021)
The 2005 Latour comes to HDH directly from the château with perfect provenance and individual bottle prooftags for proprietary Château Latour authentication.
The exceptional 2005 Bordeaux vintage was marked by notably favorable weather conditions throughout the growing season. The historically dry conditions matched perfectly with persistent, gentle winds through harvest, which promoted optimal acid retention and gradual concentration.
