Forts Latour other_regions The wine is aged in

The wine is aged in very mild oak in order to maintain the purity of the fruit and the robust tannins that come naturally to it

Historically

This is one of the top releases from Piedmont this year

Like the Bâtard

This displays enough Nuits character to remain true to the terroir yet there is virtually no rusticity

Forts Latour other_regions The wine is aged inDark crimson with a little age at the rim. Beefy, bloody notes on the nose. Quite open. Already quite soft and round on the front palate with fine tannins only on the very end. You could drink this now with food but there is still lots of life in it. More substantial than the 1996 Forts. Vigorous and powerful.
