Château Latour is located in the southernmost part of Pauillac. The winery is situated directly on the Gironde estuary. Since 1855, it has been one of the four original Premiers Crus of the Médoc. The heart of the estate is the Enclos vineyard. Its soils are deep, gravelly, and clayey, imparting power and minerality to the Grand Vin. The blend traditionally relies on Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Château Latour is one of the benchmark wines of this appellation.

The 1966 Vintage

1966 is considered a classic vintage in Bordeaux, characterized by high tannin content and vibrant acidity. A cool summer preceded the vintage. A warm September saved the harvest. Grape picking began in early October. The Médoc was among the winners of this vintage, and Château Latour also benefited. These characteristics gave it its exceptional aging potential. It remains one of the most sought-after wines of its generation to this day.

explanation of the condition

Using a snapshot from we have recorded the condition of this wine bottle 1966 Château Latour for you.

We would like to point out that despite correct, constant and protected storage, the condition of the wine bottle can change over time.

But don't worry, we will pack your wine order carefully and safely.

What you should consider when delivering wine

  • Consider storage location

    The plan is for you to receive your bottle of wine - Château Latour 1966 - in person. This ensures that the Red wine is not unnecessarily exposed to the weather. If you have wine delivered to a parcel station, pay attention to cold or hot day and night temperatures. This is because a parcel station is usually not air-conditioned. Spending too long in such a parcel compartment can affect the wine bottle. If the wine delivery was left on your doorstep, a longer stay in hot, cold or wet conditions can also disadvantage the wine bottle.

  • Avoid condensation

    Especially in the winter months (below 10 ° Celsius), your wine delivery is exposed to cold temperatures during transport. We therefore recommend that you place your package unopened in a room with a room temperature of approx. 15 - 18 ° Celsius for approx. 24 hours after delivery. This way, the wine bottle acclimatizes gently. If you were to place the cold wine bottle in a warm room, condensation would occur on the glass body. This happens because the warm, humid room temperature hits the cold surface of your new Red wine bottle. The result would be that water droplets and moisture would affect the wine label. A wavy, partially slightly detached label could occur.
