Aloxe Corton 1er Cru 2017 - Domaine Louis Latour
Wines from the estate Louis Latour
- Tasting notes : The superb Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru "Domaine Latour" presents a ruby color with an intense nose of licorice and undergrowth. Ample in the mouth, this wine is well balanced with notes of mocha and silky tannins.
- Description : Aloxe-Corton is the cradle of the LATOUR family and has been the heart of the estate for centuries. The village is located on a stony hillside at the foot of the Corton mountain. The wines of Aloxe-Corton are an alliance between the finesse of the wines of the Côte de Beaune and the powerful velvetiness of those of the Côte de Nuits.
