Les Forts de Latour is produced with the same meticulous care as the Grand Vin, both in the vineyard and in the winery. The only notable difference, apart from the origin of the grapes, is the proportion of new barrels (50 to 60%) used in the maturing stage.
The blend for Forts de Latour can vary from one year to the next but there is always a higher proportion of Merlot (25 to 30%) compared to the Grand Vin.
Please note that the packaging or label may be different from what you see in the picture.
Les Forts de Latour 2011, Pauillac 2nd wine Ch. Latour
Extremely pleasant Bordeaux cuvee with the same blend of varieties as in Grand Vin with the only difference in the usage of new barrels.

A deviation from classic style of fresh Sauvignons, primary aromas are of secondary importance. In our house, we see it as concrete, complex wine; the character of Sauvignon Blanc is less expressed although it is clear and recognizable. It shows its best after a few years, when it gains complexity. Sauvignon Blanc that grows in the Goriška Brda soil is often concentrated, which allows freedom in shaping its structure and body. Rather than grassy notes, we perceive apricots and white peaches, also some smoky notes, which are a result of oak ageing. On the palate, it offers even more character than on the nose.The colour is medium deep golden. Slightly closed on the nose at first but then opens and gets opulent. This is not a Sauvignon Blanc in style of various primary tropical fruits, but rather in a riper, fuller style with a restrained, but complex aromatic profile. Gooseberries, peaches, wet stone, buer.Dry on the palate, intense, full bodied with a good amount of ripe acidities. Oily texture with in intense and persistent flavour. A savoury Sauvignon Blanc which requires a well-chosen main dish. Can this one be compared with world classics? Hardly. Maybe it is close to Fumé Blanc from Napa but in fact it is in a style of its own, faithful Sauvignon Blanc from Brda. Edi’s!

Penina plus represents Martinčič's most elegant more mature sparkling wine, with many subtle perceptions. It is a semi-dry sparkling wine that rewards the drinker in its harmony, softness and longer aftertaste.Sparkling wine that has matured and been in contact with yeast for at least 24 months.Taste and aroma express richness and elegance, hence the name plus.

The wine is of an intense golden yellow color. On the nose, it surprises us with a rich selection of aromas, ranging from a characteristic note of nutmeg to citrus fruits, elderberry, and herbs. In the mouth, the wine is rich, sweet, and fresh with a characteristic note of melon which is a reflection of the proportion of Momjan Muscat. It is excellent as a stand-alone wine or with fruit desserts (Paul's cake, peach cake, and apple strudel with cinnamon).
