Vincent Latour Meursault Blanc ‘Clos des Magny’ 2021

Introduction

Latour handcrafts 5,000 cases, with a focus on Meursault, from his 8 hectares of vineyards. Vincent Latour comes from a family who has been making wine since 1792. The Domaine used to sell off their grapes, but when Vincent took over from his father in 1998, he decided to bottle all of their production.

An elegant white Burgundy coming from a mere .93 hectare parcel. Most of the vines are over 40 years in age. The grapes were fermented with native yeasts and with whole clusters. The wine then aged in demi-muids on the lees (no stirring) for a year before bottling.
