The Latour family have long been established in Burgundy’s wine trade. They began as vine growers in the village of Aloxe-Corton as early as 1768 and went on to establish today’s business, Maison Louis Latour in 1797. Today they are one of the region’s most famous names creating wines from their own 50 hectare domaine in the Côte d’Or and from grapes and wines purchased through the negociant arm of the business. The company has been in family ownership for 11 generations and is now led by the 7th Louis Latour. He is ably supported by Chief winemaker Jean Charles Thomas, and Denis Fetzmann and Boris Champy who run the Domaine.
The grapes for the Louis Latour Macon Lugny Les Genievres are selected from the well-exposed commune of Lugny, which 30 years ago, was the only village planted with Chardonnay due to a perfect terroir. Lugny is one of the top vineyards in Mâconnais region of Southern Burgundy and Louis Latour Macon Lugny Les Genievres is simply an outstanding wine.
Louis Latour Macon Lugny Les Genievres is vinified in 100% stainless steel and undergoes 100% malolactic fermentation. The wine is then aged for 8 to 10 months in vat prior to release.
