Tasting note

品飲筆記：2012 年的拉圖波美侯散發成熟黑櫻桃與梅子香，伴隨松露、黑巧克力與可可粉的幽雅層次，還有烤核桃的細緻香氣。口感紮實而飽滿，果實豐腴但單寧清晰有力，入口圓潤後逐步展現礦物感與微辣的胡椒尾韻，收結清新而持久。 酒莊故事：酒莊以莊園的塔樓命名，1917 年由 Madame Loubat 買下，1962 年起由 J‑P Moueix 經營，家族在 2024 年正式入主，延續經典波美侯風格。 釀造手法：採溫控混凝土與不鏽鋼槽發酵，浸皮與萃取節制溫和，為保留果香與細緻單寧，後熟 12–14 個月於法國橡木桶（約 50% 新桶）。 葡萄園與風土：園地土壤多樣——靠近教堂的礫石夾黏土，以及環繞莊園的壤土，造就酒款的層次與和諧。這支酒入口有厚實果感與結實單寧，建議醒酒一小時左右，配紅肉最合拍。

Tasting note: This 2012 from Latour à Pomerol opens with a layered aromatic profile of ripe black cherry and plum, edged with truffle, dark chocolate and cocoa, and a hint of shelled walnuts. On the palate it is dense and textured — plush fruit balanced by a firm, chewy tannic frame and an underlying mineral streak that keeps the finish fresh and lingering. Producer notes: Latour à Pomerol, named for the small tower by the château, has a long association with the Moueix family: farmed by Établissements Jean‑Pierre Moueix since 1962 and formally acquired in 2024. The estate blends tradition with careful modern winemaking. Winemaking notes: Fermented in thermo‑regulated concrete and stainless steel vats with gentle, controlled maceration and extraction. Aged 12–14 months in French oak (approximately 50% new), the oak supports but does not dominate, preserving primary fruit and terroir expression. Vineyard notes: The site is notable for diverse soils — gravel and clay parcels near the village church and loam around the château — contributing complexity and harmony to the wine. Drinking window runs broadly from 2015 to 2035; with cellaring it gains tertiary notes, while decanting 60–90 minutes will help open its aromatics.
