Santenay Louis Latour
Information
About the producer

A family business since its creation in 1797, Louis Latour is one of the most recognised traders/ famers in Burgundy. It has remained a family enterprise for over two centuries and is thus part of the closed circle of the Henokiens. It is now Florent Latour, representative of the 11th generation who is at its head since the disappearance of his brother Louis Fabrice. The Louis Latour house gradually formed a vast domaine, extending from Chambertin to Chevalier-Montrachet: 48 hectares, 28 in grand crus. It cultivates Pinot Noir for its reds and Chardonnay for its whites. Over the last thirty years, the company has also spread in the Ardèche, in the Var and in the Pierres Dorées region, also producing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The Maison is committed to a more ecologically friendly and respectful terroir by adopting responsible and sustainable agriculture (limitation of pesticides, compost and ploughing of certain parcels).

About the wine

Reputed for their tannic and structured profile, the wines of Santenay are nice represented here by this Maison Louis Latour signature. From marl-chalk soil, these 30-year-old Pinot Noir vines were harvested by hand. Traditional fermentation in open vats was followed by a 10-12 month maturation in oak barrels and vats. This is a wine marked by a ruby hue, a deep aromatic bouquet (dark fruits, earth, coffee) as well as a delicate texture and a fresh finish.
