Louis Latour - Bourgogne - Cuvee Latour - Rouge - 2023
Description
Typicity (true expression of its origin) is essential to this wine. It is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes from the lesser-known yet well placed vineyards of the southern Cote-d'Or, harmoniously united with small parcels of superior Santenay or Auxey-Duresses grapes. This gives an overall result startlingly reminiscent of a fine Cote de Beaune wine.
