Aloxe-Corton 2017 Domaine Louis Latour

Description

Aloxe-Corton has been the home of the Latour family and the heart of Domaine Louis Latour for centuries. The village of Aloxe-Corton is located in the north of the Côte de Beaune on a stony hillside at the foot of the hill of Corton. It was in 1862 that the name of the climat Corton was added to the village name Aloxe. The vineyards of Domaine Louis Latour surround this famous village and yield a classic Aloxe-Corton.

The 2017 Aloxe-Corton “Domaine Latour” reveals a deep ruby hue and a powerful nose of black cherry and liquorice. The mouth is round and elegant with melted tannins. Notes of liquorice emerge on the finish with a subtle toasty touch.
