The estate

Founded in 1797, the Louis Latour maison is today represented by the 11th generation, led by Louis-Fabrice Latour. A négociant-éleveur, Maison Louis Latour owns the largest Grand Cru estate in Burgundy.

The vineyard

This Louis Latour Grand Cru is a Montrachet wine produced from a vineyard whose vines, averaging 40 years of age, are planted on soils composed of chalk, gravel, and limestone.

Winemaking and aging

After manual harvesting, fermentation is carried out traditionally in oak barrels with 100% malolactic fermentation. Aging for 10 to 12 months is done in French oak barrels (100% new) from Maison Louis Latour’s cooperage.

Blend

Chardonnay (100%).
