Château Latour

The Château Latour is one of the

first producers that were classified

in 1855. This is a 65ha vineyard

located in the Medoc. It is based

at a château and has the

appellation of controlled origine

(AOC). The Château Latour is

located in the heart of Medoc

vineyards, about 50km north-

west of Bordeaux, where the

famous Bordeaux vineyards are.

It is on this land that for centuries

with love and knowledge, men and

women grow and produce one of

the best red wines in the world.
