Press review
- Bourgogne Chardonnay "La Chanfleure" 2019 - Forbes - "A beautifully structured body"
Louis Latour, a name synonymous with Burgundy's wine-making traditions, makes beautifully expressive Chardonnays, and the 2019 is no exception. Floral notes are accompanied by green apple, white peach, and a touch of almond, with a beautifully structured body, to boot. The Latour family's centuries of expertise shine through in this wine, making it an ideal introduction to the region's premium whites, whether enjoyed with seafood, salads, or dishes laden with cream (you know, the way all good French dishes should be).
