The year 2000 achieved a score of 96 points and is recognized as a full-bodied vintage in the region.

Established in 1943, this regional AOC covers the entire Bordeaux area but enforces stricter production regulations than the basic Bordeaux appellation. These requirements include lower crop yields, higher minimum alcohol levels, older vines, denser planting, and a mandatory production process that involves at least nine months of aging. The appellation spans approximately 12,400 hectares and is traditionally focused on blends dominated by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, often supplemented by Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and occasionally Carmenère.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLocated along the Atlantic coast, Bordeaux is globally renowned and has been exporting wine since the Middle Ages. The region is geographically divided by the Gironde estuary, with Cabernet Sauvignon thriving on the gravel soils of the Left Bank, while the Right Bank is the traditional domain of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The historic 1855 classification continues to highlight the area's leading châteaux, cementing Bordeaux's reputation for producing elegant blended wines of great finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château Latour-Laguens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56998861865286,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-418_65a7452e-9a6e-4322-8aa2-c07a661b1f0e.jpg?v=1784718426","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.eu\/products\/bordeaux-superieur-chateau-latour-laguens-2000","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
