Our Wines & Spirits

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: Forts de Latour needs a fair bit of air tounlock a profound, powerhouse nose of blackcurrant cordial,boysenberries, plum preserves and dark chocolate, with suggestionsof Chinese five spice, clove oil, violets and crushed rocks. Thepalate packs an absolute flavor wallop, bursting with rich, ripeblack fruits and loads of spicy sparks, while framed by beautifullyplush tannins, finishing long and minerally. Not at all heavy, onthe contrary, the Les Forts is both expansive AND tantalizinglyrefreshing. In terms of evolution, it has barely budged since Ilast tasted it in 2017. While it's drinking very well right now, iteasily has a good 20 years of cellaring ahead, maybe more.Impressive."
