Winery
First labelled Les Forts de Latour in 1966, the wine takes its name from a historic plot within Château Latour’s Enclos.
Grapes come from the edge of the Enclos, selected plots considered during blending, and estate vineyards elsewhere in Pauillac. Its maturation uses a smaller proportion of new oak than the Grand Vin.
