是波爾多左岸的極致典範，相信沒有人會反對。葡萄園擁有全波爾多最深厚的礫石層，加上礫石層下的密實黏土，這樣極端的土壤組合造就了全波爾多最雄壯威武的紅酒。如同其酒標上的圖騰，從17家族的經營開始，Chateau Latour多年來一直是剛猛如獅子、堅實如堡壘的左岸紅酒之最。

All three bottles of the 1929 Latour were dead on arrival. I have had some interesting bottles of this vintage in the past, where the wine was always fragile, with some volatile acidity, but considerable character. This bottle exhibited notes of sweet cedar, but its light amber color suggested a tired wine. As it sat in the glass, aromas of stale tea, musty wood, and decaying mushrooms made an appearance. Obviously this was a rich, opulent Latour in its youth, but it has totally declined based on these bottles from the Chateau. It would be interesting to compare it to a 1929 that had been kept in a very cold cellar.
