Wigan regained the lead in the 11th minute, Taylor heading home Fraser Murray's cross for his second.
But the Hatters drew level before the interval when Adama Sidibeh converted from Jack Diamond's cross.
After the break, County pressed for a winner, with Wootton and Sidibeh both denied at close range by Sam Tickle.
Wigan's task was made harder when Steven Sessegnon was sent off for a second booking with 30 minutes remaining.
And they were made to pay in stoppage time as Wootton headed home to complete the comeback before adding a fourth in the dying minutes as Wigan finished with nine men following Maleace Asamoah's late dismissal.
