Highlights
- 100% Pinot Noir sourced from mature vines averaging 30 years of age across prime village parcels in Santenay.
- Grown on classic Jurassic limestone and nutrient-rich marl soils in the southern tip of the Côte de Beaune, celebrated historically as offering "the soul of Volnay and the body of Pommard."
- Produced by Maison Louis Latour, a benchmark Burgundian estate and négociant house founded in 1797 with over two centuries of winemaking heritage.
- Vinified traditionally in open vats with complete malolactic fermentation, followed by 10 to 12 months maturation in stainless steel vats to preserve luminous red berry fruit, purity, and supple texture.
- From the warm, generous, and balanced 2022 Burgundy harvest; wonderfully charming now with cellar longevity through 2030+.
Tasting Notes
Bright ruby-red with brilliant violet reflections, it opens with inviting, expressive aromas of ripe wild raspberries, juicy blackberries, and red cherries, layered with earthy undergrowth, subtle licorice, and delicate dried rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied, round, and remarkably supple, delivering generous berry fruit framed by smooth, fine-grained tannins and balanced, refreshing acidity, concluding on a clean, harmonious, and pleasantly savory finish.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve cellar-cool at 14–16°C in generous Burgundy or Pinot Noir stemware.
- Decanting: Best enjoyed with 15 to 25 minutes of gentle aeration in the glass to allow its ripe berry and forest floor perfumes to open up. Prime drinking window now through 2030+.
