Louis Latour Grand Cru Corton-Charlemagne from France, Burgundy, Corton-Charlemagne by Louis Latour (12 x 75 cl)

After the ravages of the phylloxera aphid at the end of the 19th century it was the Latour family that took the now-celebrated decision to tear up the dead Aligote and Pinot Noir vines and to replace them with Chardonnay. The vineyard of Corton-Charlemagne is situated in the prime area of the hillside of Corton where its south-easterly aspect ensures maximum exposure to the sun. The Corton-Charlemagne 2001 is a dazzling gold. The nose is loaded with intense aromas including candied bananas and subtle oak. The palate is full of youthful exuberance and notes of almonds, vanilla, oak and minerals. This is a huge, powerful, round Grand Cru that is still young but lingers deliciously (12 x 75 cl)

Often unyielding when young, this old Jadot favourite ages brilliantly to produce huge complex wine that is great with soft French cheese. (6 x 75 cl)

This wine is begining to show lovely mature Pinot Noir characteristics. The colour has begun to turn and the fruit is nutty and sweet. (12 x 75 cl)
