Wine in Cote de Beaune

The colours are very pretty, often very intense. The bouquet is also intense with notes of ripe red fruits. Overall the wines show a nice tannic structure. At the moment we are already noticing a very long finish; a sign of great wines.

Showcasing the richness and velvety texture often associated with wines from Savigny, this also highlights the ripeness of the vintage. The result is a wine in which ripe red fruits and a smooth texture overtake the tannins that lend a subtle structure and will help it age.

Les Hautés and les Boutonniers are two terroirs touching Meursault and which give very elegant, aromatic wines with the minerality which is so typical of white Auxey-Duresses.

Santenay is the most southerly village in the Côte de Beaune and produces both red and white wines. The red wines from Santenay are reputed to be tannic and well-structured. They say of Santenay that the wines have the soul of Volnay and the body of Pommard.

Manual harvesting into crates; following pneumatic pressing, our juices are cooled and sediment removed within 24 hours. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in oak barrels, maximum 30% new barrels. Ageing 12 months in barrels, then 4 to 6 months maturing in stainless steel vats. Bottled at the estate. A rich, fruity, powerful flavour is sustained by spicy, mineral notes; such is the expression of the Meursault wines that originate in the Blagny terroirs. A spicy finish unique to this terroir.

Several important critics have rated this Chassagne-Montrachet wine highly: Wine Spectator gave the 2011 vintage a score of 91.

Lovely floral bouquet on the nose with aromas of hot croissant or brioche and candied lemon. Over time, the nose develops nuances of spice and roasted hazelnut. Bold yet elegant on the palate, this Chassagne-Montrachet is fleshy and well balanced. Long on the finish with gingerbread and floral notes.

"Philippe and Etienne Delarche run a family estate of 9 hectares in the villages of Pernand-Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. The harvest is hand-picked and the wines made in the traditional manner. For red wines, the grapes are destemmed, then spend 10 to 12 days in the vat. The cap of skins is punched by hand, then the grapes are pressed. During fermentation, the temperature is constantly checked. The wines are then put into barrels and left to mature for around 15 months. The red wines are pure and concentrated, with lovely color and red-fruit aromas; they are complex and perfectly balanced. For me, Renardes, Bressandes and Clos du Roi are without equal among the grand cru reds from Crton. To findone, from a great vintage, at this price is only possible because of our direct purchase. The rich texture, drive and weight all reveal clearly tha tthis is Grand Cru. The palate impression is very rich, with ripe tannins. There is just a hint of sauvage/foxy notes that this vineyard is known for. Bravo Etienne!" - (Keith Wollenberg, Burgundy Buyer, 03/2014)

After the ravages of the phylloxera epidemic at the end of the 19th century the Latour family took the then unusual decision to tear up the dead Aligoté and Pinot Noir vines and replace them with Chardonnay. This decision leads them to create one of Burgundy's most celebrated white whites. Today the Latour family owns 11 hectares which makes them the biggest owner in the appellation. The Latour's Corton-Charlemagne vineyards are located on a prime section of the Corton hillside where the south-easterly aspect ensures maximum exposure to the sun. The fruit is harvested as late as possible to guarantee maximum ripeness.

Wine Spectator-Meursault, Burgundy, France- "Lime-tinged apple and peach flavors, joined by a hint of blossom, are accented by toasty oak. There's good acidity here and a sense of elegance. The fine aftertaste features fruit and spice notes."
