Since 1797, Louis Latour has arguably been the most renowned merchant/winegrower in Burgundy. This beautiful family-owned business is now led by Florent Latour (11th generation) and spans from Chambertin to Chevalier-Montrachet. With 48 hectares, including 28 in grand crus, supplemented by grape purchases, the estate also has presence in Beaujolais, Var, and Ardèche.
This Chardonnay from Meursault is aged for 8 to 10 months in oak barrels (including 15% new barrels) produced by the Latour estate itself. One will appreciate the nose of toasted almond and apricot, with subtle hints of lime. Very round and elegant on the palate, it is a wine suited for gastronomy.
