| Winery: | Maison Louis Latour |
| Description: | One of the largest traditional estates in Burgundy, Louis Latour's roots date to at least 1731. Over the past three centuries, the Latour family has added to its first few acres, increasing its Aloxe-Corton holdings to more than 80 acres, and this producer now owns an impressive 27 acres in the Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru, the largest holding in the prized designation. In addition, Latour boasts vineyards in Corton's Les Bressandes, Les Perrières, Les Grèves and Clos du Roi, as well as Cambertin and Romanée-St-Vivant, both Côte de Nuits grand cru designations, and Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru, which is in the Côte de Beaune. Latour's cuverie sits in Louis Latour's original eighteenth-century manor house, and designed by the domaine's namesake, this five-story enterprise has been entirely gravity-fed since its creation. Maison Louis Latour is currently run by Florent Latour, who took over after the sudden death of his brother, Louis-Fabrice, in 2022, and Jean-Charles Thomas serves as winemaker, overseeing Latour's largely traditional vinification and crafting of Latour's more than 150 wines, an impressively reliable and captivating output. |
