"Fruity, delicious and fresh!"
Notes of yellow peach, fresh hazelnut and almond paste are found on the nose of this Montagny 1er Cru. Ample and very round, the palate also recalls aromas of marzipan, with hints of honey. A fresh finish.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)
About the domain :
Founded in 1797, this family-run business has strong links with the Côte de Beaune, where it owns most of its vineyards, culminating in a sumptuous site on the famous Corton hillside. Louis-Fabrice, the eleventh generation of Latour, presides over the family board and has every confidence in his excellent winemakers. The reds have had their fermentation times extended, giving them more flesh and body, while the whites are less reduced and more harmoniously oaked than in the past, with a constant quest for balance that sometimes makes them undervalued in their youth, but they age magnificently. 2017 is in line with the success of 2010 and 2015, in both colors, but we'll trust the cuvées from the estate's vines more than certain purchases, especially the overly diluted whites.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
An independent family business, founded in 1797 and run successively by 10 generations of Latour. A key player in Burgundy winegrowing and the largest owner of Grands Crus in the Côte-d'Or (28 ha of its 48 hectares of vineyards). The grapes are vinified in Aloxe-Corton, the family's birthplace, and the company has its own cooperage.
