The Louis Latour Marsannay Blanc opens with a fresh bouquet of citrus fruits. The same aromas are found upon tasting with a floral finish to the wine. Round and velvety, with a good length, it is delicious while still young but a few years of cellaring will make it even more appealing.
Enjoy as an aperitif or with shellfish, fish or white meat.
100% Chardonnay. Traditional fermentation in stainless steel vats, temperature controlled with complete malolactic fermentation. Aged for 8 to 10 months in stainless steel vats.
Marsannay is the village which marks the northern gateway to the Côte d'Or on leaving Dijon, the capital of Burgundy and home to the Ducs de Bourgogne. This village marks the beginning of the Route des Grands Crus which follows the N6 highway through the Côte d'Or. Marsannay received its Appellation Contrôlée in 1987 in recognition of its consistently high quality wines.
A whiff of the exotic can be found on the white peach and matchstick scented nose. There is very good density to the mouth coating flavors that display a touch of rusticity, indeed this is almost chewy, on the clean, dry and bitter lemon inflected finish. Drink: 2023+
