Louis Latour Saint-Aubin 1er Cru · 2021
The Louis Latour Saint-Aubin 1er Cru ‘Les Combes’ 2021 is a white wine from the Côte de Beaune region, made from Chardonnay grapes from 30-year-old vineyards located on chalky soils. Traditionally fermented in French oak barrels, aged for 8 to 10 months in barrels, 10% of which are new, it has a pale golden colour and is bright. On the nose, it offers aromas of acacia and toasted notes, while in the mouth it is full and fresh, with a remarkable length and an almost saline finish. This wine has a cellaring potential of up to 5 years and pairs well with seafood, fish, fine charcuterie and goat's cheese.

About the vineyard[+]
Saint-Aubin AOC is one of Burgundy's hidden gems, located between the legendary villages of Montrachet and Meursault. This region is renowned for its exceptional quality, but often offers more affordable prices than its neighbours, making it a real discovery for those looking for elegant Burgundy wines.Most of the vineyards in Saint-Aubin are planted with Chardonnay, which produces subtle, mineral, and structured white wines. They are characterised by aromas of citrus, apple, and white flowers, sometimes enriched with subtle notes of nuts or butter due to ageing in barrels.The taste is expressive with acidity, a mineral backbone, and a long finish, which allows them to be compared to their great neighbours in Côte de Beaune.This region also produces red wines from Pinot Noir: they are elegant, fruity, with notes of cherry, raspberry, and light spices, soft tannins, and silky textures.Saint-Aubin AOC wines offer a chance to taste authentic Burgundy, where tradition, unique terroir, and undeniable elegance come together.
