Description :
Aloxe-Corton is the birthplace of the Latour family and has been the heart of the Domaine Louis Latour for two centuries. The village is situated on a stony hillside at the foot of the Corton mountain. It was in 1862 that the name of one of the climes "Corton" was added to Aloxe. Overlooking Aloxe-Corton, the vines of Domaine Louis Latour produce a typical Aloxe-Corton.

Tasting note :
With a deep ruby colour, our Aloxe-Corton "Domaine Latour" 2017 reveals 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 light woody note. Pleasant wine from now on.

Note de dégustation :
D'une robe rubis profond, notre Aloxe-Corton « Domaine Latour » 2017 dévoile un nez puissant de cerise noire et de réglisse. La bouche est ronde et élégante avec des tanins fondus. Des notes de réglisse se dégagent en finale avec un léger boisé. Vin agréable dès maintenant.
