A family business since its creation in 1797, Maison Louis Latour is one of the most recognised merchants /farmers in Burgundy. It has remained a family business for more than two centuries and therefore part of the closed circle of Henokiens. It is now Louis-Fabrice Latour, the representative of the 11th generation who is at its head. Maison Louis Latour has gradually built a vast domain, extending from Chambertin to Chevalier-Montrachet: 48 hectares, including 28 in grands crus. It grows Pinot Noir for its reds and Chardonnay for its whites. For the past 30 years, the company has also spread to Ardèche, in the Var and the Pierres Dorées area - also producing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The Maison has embarked on a more ecological path which respects the soil by choosing sustainable agriculture (limited pesticides, compost, ploughing by horse of some plots).
Aged for eight to ten months in oak barrels (50% new), this wine offers up aromas of white fruit and notes of marzipan, while the palate provides fullness, roundness and slight notes of élevage (vanilla) which mingle with the aromas of fresh almond, all ending with a rather long finish.

Beaune 1er Cru Louis Latour (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 16°C.
