Vincent Latour, Meursault Cuvee Saint Jean 2023 750ml (13.0% ABV)

From two parcels– Les Vireuils, planted in 1998, and Les Crotots, planted in 1925, 1926, 1992 and 2001- fermented and aged in demi-muids on the lees (no stirring) for 12 months. Floral and rich with nice acidity and a salty finish.

Although the Latour-Labille family has been making wine since 1792, Vincent Latour began turning heads in Burgundy after the release of his 2006 vintage when he was nominated as winemaker of the year by the well-respected local magazine, Bourgogne Aujourd’hui. He has also been recognized several times as the best new/young winemaker in the Côte de Beaune and in the Côte de Nuits as the result of an annual blind tasting hosted by local vignerons.

Vincent is hand-crafting exceptional Meursault from eight hectares of vines. The style is classic, emphasizing the brilliant fruit and mineral laden terroir.
