Meursault 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

The Meursault appellation may not produce grand crus, but with its wide sloping plain and an iron-rich limestone soil, it can boast premier crus of very high quality. The wines of Meursault are famous all over the world, with connoisseurs revering their golden colour, heady bouquet and intense aromas of honey, linden, hazelnut butter and sometimes camomile or hawthorn, their round and silky flavour and their long persistence, suggesting yellow plum and gingerbread. They show great consistency on the palate, with an abundant mellowness bordering on creaminess. Their good acidity makes them wines for long cellaring.
