🏰 The 1994 Louis Latour Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru is a 【true icon of Maison Louis Latour】, showcasing the power and purity of Burgundy's most legendary white wine terroir. This wine has proven its decades-long longevity, evolving beautifully over time. It presents a pale yellow color with a delicate nose of vanilla, fresh hazelnut, and white peach. The palate is full-bodied, dominated by notes of lime blossom and acacia honey, with a lingering mineral finish. Expect a rich bouquet of lemon and tropical fruit, intense on the mouth, embellished with mineral notes, and great persistence. It's described as buttery and complex.
🍴 This magnificent white Burgundy is perfect with refined dishes such as lobster in butter sauce, seared scallops, roasted turbot, or Bresse chicken with morels. It also pairs wonderfully with foie gras, fish, and mature cheeses like aged Comté or a mild triple-cream cheese. For a heartier option, lamb chops or osso bucco are suggested.
🥂 Ideal for a very special anniversary, a luxurious fine dining experience, or as a cherished addition to a serious wine collection. This wine is a testament to the beauty of aged white Burgundy.
Serving note: For a wine of this age, expect the cork to be fragile. Decanting is recommended to allow the wine to breathe and to separate any sediment. Serve slightly chilled, around 13-14°C, to best appreciate its intricate, evolved flavors and aromas. Be prepared for a unique old wine style, where tertiary notes of nuts, honey, and subtle oxidative characters can add to a positive and complex experience.
BACKGROUND
Louis Latour (also known as Domaine Louis Latour) is a major négociant and wine producer in Burgundy, France. A majority of the wine portfolio is produced from the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wine grape varieties. The Latour family have grown grapes as far back as the 17th Century in Aloxe-Corton. They acquired a 125 acre (50 ha) domaine and the Corton Grancey winery was built in 1834.
