A Grand Cru white Burgundy made from 100% Chardonnay, bottled at 14.5% ABV. Maison Louis Latour, founded in 1797, is one of the largest landholders in the Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru vineyard. The 2018 vintage was hand-harvested, pressed and fermented in 100% new French oak barrels before ageing for eight to ten months, using a gravity-fed process in the Louis Latour cuverie.
The nose opens with intense white stone fruit and fresh white peach, then fresh hazelnut, almond paste, subtle vanilla, honeysuckle and dried apple. The palate brings bright lemon and pear with vivid acidity, then cream, cooked apple, white flowers, tension and a pronounced mineral component. The finish is long and finely textured, with lemon zest, butter, pastry accents and lingering minerality.
