Volnay 1er Cru En Chevret - Louis Latour - 2018

75 cl

Alcohol content: 14.5% vol.

Grape varieties: 100% Pinot Noir

Vinification:

Hand harvest. Fermentation traditionally in large, open wooden barrels. The wine then matures for ten to twelve months in oak barrels specially made by the Louis Latour cooperage.

Tasting note:

Deep red, a seductive bouquet of cherries and cassis with a hint of coffee, balanced, powerful body with cassis and liqueur notes, beautifully embedded in chocolate and roasted flavours.

Domaine et Maison Latour:

Today, the 11th Latour generation is already running the wine trade and winegrowing business. The management of the family business is always passed on to the first-born - and for eight generations he has always had the first name Louis.

Today, no fewer than seven domaines mainly produce grapes from the Côte d'Or, but also from the Chablis, the Beaujolais and from the south of France.

Maison Louis Latour is the only company in Burgundy to produce all of its own pièces (wooden barrels) in its own cooperage. Wines from over 100 AOCs are matured in around 3500 barrels. Louis Latour's wines are elegant and fragrant. The focus is less on concentration and more on elegance.
