Meursault Cuvee Charles Maxime Latour Giraud 2020, Burgundy, France
TASTING NOTES
A fabulous Meursault wine with a very appealing nose with whisky barrel hints and plenty of nutty richness. A full and fruit-driven wine with creamy, ripe melon fruit flavours.
The house style is classic Meursault wine: ripe and full but finely balanced too with that peculiarly French word, nervosité.

Producer
Jean-Pierre Latour is your archetypal small Burgundian grower. A visit to the winery involves little more than popping under the garage to the cuverie and barrel cellar, squeezing in amongst the tanks to find a perch for your glass. The quantities here are tiny, with Jean-Pierre’s vines split amongst over thirteen vineyards in Meursault, Puligny, Pommard and Volnay. Ask nicely and you might even get to try the miniscule amount of red Meursault made here.
Both the Latours and the Girauds have a long family history in Burgundy and everything about the domaine speaks of unpretentious, authentic winemaking. The house style is classic Meursault: ripe and full but finely balanced too with that peculiarly French word, nervosité.
