Louis Latour

Now in the eleventh generation of Latour’s, and the seventh Louis in Louis-Fabrice Latour, the domaine covers more than 50 hectares stretching from Chablis to Chassagne-Montrachet, Beaujolais, Macon and non-Burgundian Ardeche and Provence.

While Maison Louis Latour is the larger negociant business, Domaine Louis Latour produces wines from their own vineyard holdings in the Cote d’Or including a whopping 17ha of Grand Cru Corton and 10ha of Corton-Charlemagne and Grand Cru holdings from Gevrey-Chambertin to Chassagne-Montrachet.

In Vosne-Romanee, Latour has owned a slice of Romanee-Saint-Vivant neighbouring that of the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti’s since 1898 and which is called “Les Quatre Journaux” after the ancient area that could be ploughed in a day. Beautifully perfumed with spice and dark fruits, this is one of Latour’s best wines.

Latour is by far the largest owner on the hill of Corton with a whopping 17ha of Grand Cru Corton and 10ha of Corton-Charlemagne. The Chateau de Corton Grancey, in the midst of the vineyards, has been in the family since 1890 and Louis Latour has been the flagbearer for all things Corton ever since.
