The estate’s story is one of evolution and innovation. In 1964, new vines were planted and the introduction of stainless steel vats with automatic cooling revolutionized winemaking at Latour. Just two years later, the Château unveiled its second label, Les Forts de Latour, a name that has since become celebrated in its own right. The estate’s modern era began in 1993, when François Pinault acquired a controlling stake, ushering in an era of meticulous refinement with Frédéric Engerer as director.
