| Description: |
|
This wine is produced from selected old Pinot Noir vines with highly precise characteristics. During the growing season, restricted yields are produced through drastic debudding and cluster thinning if necessary; while the soil has little or no fertiliser, and vine protection techniques are adopted that are friendly to the environment and other plant life. This has produced a dark, sparkling ruby coloured wine with a very expressive nose showing blackcurrant and dark berries. In the mouth it is solid and intense, with structure against a very clean, fruity background. (6 x 75 cl)

Louis Latour Nuits St Georges AC
Description: The most southerly of the villages of the Côte de Nuits this region makes up the other half of the Côte d'Or. There is even an equivalent to the Hospices de Beaune Auction called the Hospices de Nuits Auction although it rarely inspires as much interest as its neighbour to the south. The wine is firm and usually requires some time before allowing its Pinot character to shine through. The 1999 vintage is an intense, deeply coloured wine, showing pronounced, complex fruit of cherries, blackcurrents and violets, with truffles and spice. Subtle and integrated oak flavours on the palate with peppery notes, this wine is medium bodied, concentrated and admirably long on the finish. (12 x 75 cl)
