Description
  • The vineyard of Beaune faces east and overlooks the city just below. Almost entirely located on a slope the vineyard has a broad diversity of climates at the Premier Cru level. Domaine Louis Latour produces this wine from the two Premier Cru vineyards of "Perrières" and "Clos du Roi". The clay, limestone soils and the ideal aspect of these vineyards consistently produce an excellent wine year after year. The relatively old vines in these vineyards produce a wine with the ability to develop with age.

  • Tasting Note
    Beautiful deep red in colour, this Beaune 1er Cru « Domaine Latour » reveals aromas of black fruits such as blackberry and blueberry with hints of chocolate thanks to the barrel-ageing. Powerful and round in the mouth, it is long-lasting with notes of liquorice on the finish.
