✨ Technical Specifications
Maison Louis Latour's Premier Cru white Burgundies represent the pinnacle of Chardonnay craftsmanship, drawing from prestigious appellations across the Côte de Beaune such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, and Chassagne-Montrachet. These wines are deeply rooted in Burgundy's Jurassic limestone terroirs, which impart a signature mineral tension and complexity. Historically, the Latour family has championed traditional Burgundian vinification, utilizing 100% barrel fermentation and aging in French oak barrels produced at their own cooperage in Beaune. This meticulous process yields a classic style characterized by a harmonious balance of rich stone fruit, toasted brioche, hazelnut, and a vibrant, flinty acidity.
