A fine, mature Bordeaux from an excellent producer. Wonderful ripeness, strong black fruit, stewed fig in the background, cedar, pepper, mint, Moroccan leather lasting and balanced structures. Tannins have softened nicely. One to drink now.
Enjoy with roast leg of lamb, venison stew or duck breast with porcini mushrooms.
Located a few kilometers south of Bordeaux, Château La Louvière is one of the most emblematic estates in the Pessac-Léognan appellation. Built in the late 18th century, the château, surrounded by superb parkland, is a model of neo-classical architecture. It has been listed as a Historic Monument since 1991.
Purchased in 1965 by André Lurton, the estate is a precious family heirloom whose wines are among the finest in Bordeaux.
Château La Louvière has many fascinating facets. The sumptuous architecture of the château building dates from the late 18th century, but winegrowing here goes back more than 700 years. The first vines were planted circa 1310, although modern winemaking dates from the 17th century and was handed down by able monks from the Carthusian monastery in Bordeaux, who had acquired considerable talent as viticulturists and winemakers. The people who produce the wine in the 21st century have inherited these time-honoured methods, adding just the right amount of innovation and modernity to make the utmost of the outstanding terroir.
