Description

Louis Latour Cote de Beaune Villages

Louis Latour Côte de Beaune-Villages 2016 is full of intense red fruit and liquorice aromas. The wine has lots of character with more savoury, undergrowth notes beginning to come through.

Maison Louis Latour owns almost fifty hectares of grand cru, premier cru and communal vineyards in Aloxe-Corton, Gevrey-Chambertin, Puligny-Montrachet, Vosne Romanée, Pernand-Vergelesses, Savigny-lès-Beaune, Pommard, Volnay and Beaune. Their Domaine represents the largest single holding of Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte d’Or.

The Côte de Beaune-Villages appellation is applied exclusively to red wines from 16 communes in the Côte de Beaune including Saint-Aubin, Pernand-Vergelesses and Auxey-Duresses. Maison Louis Latour carefully selects the wines which are the most representative of the appellation.

Maison Louis Latour’s Domaine wines are produced at Château Corton Grancey in the village of Aloxe-Corton using traditional techniques and almost entirely made by hand. The Domaine is managed by Christophe Deola.

Louis Latour’s other wines are made at the Clos Chameroy on the outskirts of Beaune under the watchful eye of Jean Charles Thomas. Here in their state of the art winery vinification takes place; blending centuries of tradition with beneficial modern innovations. During the harvest Louis Latour’s third winery in Pommard handles the red grapes from the Côte de Beaune vineyards.

The Latour family are long established in Burgundy’s wine trade. They began as vine growers in the village of Aloxe-Corton as early as 1760s and went on to establish today’s business, Maison Louis Latour, in 1797. Today they are one of the region’s most famous names, creating wines from their own 50 hectare domaine in the Côte d’Or and from grapes and wines purchased through the negociant arm of the business. They also produce all their own barrels at their small, traditional cooperage in Savigny-Lès-Beaune.

The company has been in family ownership for 11 generations and is now led by the seventh person to take the name Louis Latour. He is ably supported by head winemaker Jean Charles Thomas and domaine director Christophe Deola.
