Exceptional wines at the heart of Burgundy
The signature of Louis Latour wines
The wines of Maison Louis Latour are defined by remarkable purity of expression, natural elegance, and outstanding ageing potential. The reds gracefully combine finesse, concentration, and a silky tannic structure, while the whites reveal a subtle harmony of freshness, minerality, and delicacy. The Maison’s philosophy is to reveal the deep identity of each terroir through precise vinifications and a tailored use of oak, thereby preserving the balance and authenticity of each cru.
Remarkable village appellations
Maison Louis Latour cultivates a wide range of prestigious Burgundy village appellations: Aloxe-Corton, Beaune, Chambolle-Musigny, Chassagne-Montrachet, Gevrey-Chambertin, Meursault, Morey-Saint-Denis, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Puligny-Montrachet, Volnay, and Vosne-Romanée. These cuvées, both red and white, captivate with their subtlety, expressiveness, and beautiful aromatic complexity, reflecting exemplary consistency and a faithful interpretation of the terroir.
Exceptional Premiers Crus
The Maison also excels in crafting Premiers Crus from the most renowned terroirs of the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. The red Premiers Crus display intensity, vibrancy, and harmonious power, while the whites unfold a nuanced aromatic palette, combining richness, tension, and finesse to fully express the potential of Burgundy’s finest climats.
Rare Grands Crus
Maison Latour’s collection shines particularly through the breadth of its Grands Crus, notably Corton and Corton-Charlemagne. The red Grands Crus unite depth, power, and persistence on the palate, with remarkable ageing capacity. The white Grands Crus impress with pronounced minerality and beautiful complexity.
An iconic Burgundy Maison
An exceptional history and heritage Founded in 1797 and carried forward today by the eleventh generation of the family, Maison Louis Latour is among Burgundy’s oldest and most prestigious houses. Guardian of the region’s largest expanse of Grand Cru vineyards, it oversees a remarkable heritage of 48 hectares, 27 of which are classified as Grand Cru. As the principal steward of the Corton hill (nicknamed Burgundy’s “third côte”), it cultivates legendary appellations such as Corton-Charlemagne, Chambertin, and Chevalier-Montrachet.
A tireless pursuit of excellence
The Maison prioritizes hand harvesting and rigorous grape selection. Fermentation begins in stainless steel vats before maturing in oak barrels crafted by its own cooperage. In the cellar, centuries-old tradition and innovation come together to ensure purity and consistency, while enhancing the unique expression of each vintage and each terroir.
As an ambassador of excellence, Maison Louis Latour has perpetuated an exceptional winegrowing tradition for two centuries, inscribing its name among the finest chapters in the history of Burgundy wines.
