To the eye this wine is a clean ruby colour and has a young vegetal nose with hints of cherries. On tasting this premier cru you discover a powerful wine with balanced acidity, tannins and a light fruitiness which is complimented by smoked oak flavours. This wine tastes beautiful already but will also cellar well. (12 x 75 cl)

Louis Latour CHATEAU CORTON GRANCEY Grand Cru Rouge
Description: The winery of Corton-Grancey dates back to 1832 but it has only been since 1891, after the ruinous phylloxera crisis, that the Chateau and its purpose built cuverie has been the heart of Domaine Louis Latour. This particular wine is only produced in years when the Pinot Noir grapes reach perfect maturity. The vineyards from the following holdings are planted with vines with an average age of over 40 years. After being aged for 18 months in the cellars of Corton-Grancey, each cask is then meticulously tasted and appraised and, then, only the finest casks showing the best colour and bouquet and capacity to age will be blended to make the final wine of Chateau Corton-Grancey which only appears in exceptional years. Soil: Marl-based soil, limestone base. Vinification: Traditional open-vat fermentation at the Cuverie of Corton Grancey followed by 18 months in oak casks. Chateau Corton-Grancey Grand Cru 1996 tasted 10th December 1998: A lightish dark ruby colour and a very expressive nose of ripe fruit overtaken by a smell of fur. This fruit concentration is seen clearly on the palate alongside some well-structured underlying vanilla from the oak and hints of bitter chocolate and black currant. A wine for the cellar. The Wine Spectator, May 15, 1999 reviews the Chateau Corton-Grancey 1996: 87 points. 'Light-bodied Pinot, showing a purity of pretty berry flavour that's sweet-tasting on the midpalate. Well made in a subtle style. Should gain depth with age.' (12 x 75 cl)
