Louis Latour
About Louis Latour
One of the most prominent vine owners and négociants in Beaune, Maison Louis Latour have been growing grapes in the Côte de Beaune as early as 1731. They are currently the largest owner of Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte d’Or. The estate is also proudly family-owned and is now managed by Louis-Fabrice Latour, the seventh Louis and the 11th generation of the Latour family.
The Latour family has been proprietors of a part of Romanée-Saint-Vivant since December 1898. "Les Quatre Journaux" is a magnificent plot of land situated at the South-West of Romanée Saint Vivant, a few meters from the Romanée-Conti vineyard.

Wine Spectator (91)A layer of resinous oak shades the cherry and raspberry fruit. Spice and mineral accents show up, but for now this is austere. Should come together nicely, as the finish shows promise. Best from 2017 through 2030. 200 cases made. |

Vinous (88)The 2015 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has a tropical-toned bouquet with scents of passion fruit and pineapple chunks that are well defined and focused, if perhaps reflecting more the growing season than the terroir. The palate is well balanced and quite honeyed in texture, with moderate acidity, though I appreciate the spicy stem ginger note that furnishes the almost white-Rhône-like finish. Then again, it does cut away a little quickly, so perhaps give this another two or three years in bottle. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. |

Decanter (94)Louis Latour dominate the appellation of Corton-Charlemagne, with 10ha under vine and lots of different aspects and altitudes to choose from in Aloxe-Corton. This has lovely floral scents that lead you into a palate that's rich, leesy and magisterial with notes of citrus, pear and banana bread, well-integrated new wood and a hint of stony reduction. Consistently the négociant's best white. |

Wine Advocate (91-93+)The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is also quite promising, exhibiting aromas of pear, buttered citrus fruit, honeycomb, toasted almonds and white flowers. Full-bodied, satiny and rich, with a fleshy core of fruit and good underlying freshness, I hope it can repeat this fine performance from bottle. |

Tim Atkin MW (96)Louis Latour is the largest landowner of Charlemagne with 10.5 hectares, and all but a 0.5 hectare are together. This has lovely precision and lightness with pure green pear and honeydew melon accented by honey, vanilla bean and shortbread. The dense palate edges on hedonistic - in a good way, then the lively acidity and a thread of chalky minerality kick in to give the wine an easy drinkability. 2024-38 |

Wine Spectator (93)There is purity and elegance in this red, whose cherry, rhubarb, currant and spice flavors converge on the refined structure. Firms up as the finish reveals mineral details and more spice notes. Best from 2023 through 2040. 250 cases made, 50 cases imported. |

Burghound (91-94)There is a phenolic hint (think nut or olive oil) to the smoky mix of petrol, apple, dried apricot and white peach aromas that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. I very much like the sense of underlying tension to the caressing, exceptionally rich and generously proportioned big-bodied flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the moderately structured and sneaky long finish. This is actually very forward for a young Montrachet, but I suspect that once it is in bottle it will tighten up considerably. |
