Louis Latour - Beaune Perrieres Premier Cru - 2023
Description
In the north of the Beaune appellation, facing east, lie the faces of old quarries of various fine limestones. Our plot of Beaune "Perrieres" measures 1.32 ha. The clay-limestone soils of "Perrieres", which are shallow and poor due to the steep inclination, produce a powerful and structured red wine with a perfect aging potential.
