- Description
Vegan wine
Round with a spicy bouquet of toasted almonds and vanilla. Beautiful fullness in the mouth with integrated wood notes and a long, mineral finish. Even if it is a flattering and quite young wine, it deserves a few years of storage to reach its peak.
The age of the vines is about 30 years. Fermentation takes place in oak barrels
Rewards: 91 Robert Parker points
With over fifty hectares distributed among the best Premier and Grand Cru of Burgundy, from the Côte de Beaune to the Côte de Nuits, Domaine Louis Latour is to be considered as one of the most important wineries in the whole region . A winery whose roots go back to the past – the Latour family has in fact been active in the wine trade of the area for over two hundred years – and which today is able like no other to combine high quality with large numbers. Each label is, in fact, characterized by an unmistakable style, by an elegance that outlines both the best pinot noir and elegant chardonnay, in a succession of unique wines, in all respects.
In addition to the refinement that distinguishes the production of Burgundy, one of the great merits of the Latour is that of having brought lesser-known denominations to high levels, such as Ardèche and Coteaux de Verdon, areas outside the most noble French AOC, but at the same time however capable of producing wines of extraordinary interest.
Today, belonging to the eleventh family generation, it is Louis-Fabrice Latour who holds the reins of the company, driven by that enthusiasm, that passion and that love for his vineyards and for his work that have characterized the company since from the beginning. A magnificent reality, which preserves and guards its savoir-faire and its know-how in an extremely jealous way, producing some of the finest wines in France.
In the vineyards, the plants are raised in a rigorous and careful way, fully respecting the environment and the ecosystem. In the cellar, the grapes are treated trying to bring out to the maximum what nature has created: after alcoholic fermentation, the reds spend at least twelve months of rest in oak barrels, while the whites are processed in steel or in barrique according to the type. you want to get. Labels, in essence, those that bear the name of “Louis Latour” superimposed, of absolute quality, for years now the undisputed symbol of what is the best Burgundy when it comes to wine.
