It is named as such to distinguish it from the first growth Château Latour (on the Left Bank of the Garonne estuary in Pauillac). Latour à Pomerol is credited with producing some of Bordeaux's all-time great wines made predominantly from Merlot in the legendary post World War II vintages. More recent vintages were considered variable in quality by many critics, though from 2009 there seems to have been a return to more consistent top form. The estate has eight hectares (20 acres) of vineyards, planted predominantly to Merlot with around 10 percent Cabernet Franc. There are two plots with distinct soils – the best plot is gravel-based while the other has more sandy soils. The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented in temperature-controlled concrete and stainless steel vats. The wines are then matured in small oak barrels, around half of which are new, for around 18 months.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-08T14:11:47-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-02T08:16:56-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK0202","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Latour a Pomerol","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Cabernet Franc","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":69899,"price_min":69899,"price_max":69899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42758821609610,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Chateau Latour a Pomerol","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":69899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_74bd7023-6664-42b8-bd41-c281bf296746.jpg?v=1675343904"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_74bd7023-6664-42b8-bd41-c281bf296746.jpg?v=1675343904","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Chateau Latour a Pomerol at CaskCartel.com","id":24138059186314,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_74bd7023-6664-42b8-bd41-c281bf296746.jpg?v=1675343904"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_74bd7023-6664-42b8-bd41-c281bf296746.jpg?v=1675343904","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Chateau Latour a Pomerol\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2018 vintage is a wonderfully powerful Merlot with lofty tannins and dark fruited character.
