Louis Latour, Ch. Corton Grancey Grand Cru, Corton Rouge, 2015 | Perfect Bottle (1x75cl)
THE PRODUCER Founded in 1797, Louis Latour is one of Burgundy’s most historic and respected names, with eleven generations of family stewardship. Based in Beaune, the house is unique in that it remains both a négociant and a grower, owning 50 hectares of vines, including the largest Grand Cru holding in Burgundy. At the heart of this is Corton, where Latour’s flagship wine, Château Corton Grancey, is produced from the family’s estate vineyards. This monopole bottling comes from five Grand Cru parcels surrounding the château itself, an iconic expression of the hill of Corton. For much of the 20th century, Louis Latour’s reds were known for their structure and longevity, built for the cellar with a firm tannic spine. In more recent decades, refinement in viticulture and winemaking has brought greater purity, elegance, and finesse to the wines, without sacrificing their depth or capacity to age. Today, Château Corton Grancey represents the epitome of Latour’s style, powerful yet graceful, expressive of its terroir, and one of the most celebrated and enduring wines of the Côte d’Or. THE WINE Louis Latour’s Château Corton Grancey is a historic monopole and one of the most celebrated expressions of the hill of Corton. The château itself, built in 1834, sits at the heart of Latour’s extensive Grand Cru holdings, with the wine produced from five estate parcels surrounding the property. The south-east facing slopes and varied marl and limestone soils contribute to a wine of remarkable structure and complexity. Corton Grancey shows the depth and richness typical of Corton Rouge, with layers of black cherry and dark berry fruit wrapped in spice, earth, and a savoury mineral edge. Powerful yet refined, it has impressive density, freshness, and length, making it a wine that will age gracefully for decades while offering a glimpse of its grandeur even in youth.

Rather than simply highlight the best score to promote a wine, our average critic score is calculated from the scores provided by several respected wine critics, who we follow for specific regions. They do not represent all critic scores and, wherever possible, we try and give more weight to more recent reviews. Where appropriate we consider market-based scores like Global Wine Score or Wine Searcher Average scores. As a rule, we look to offer wines that achieve a92/100average critic score or better and frankly a lot of very good wines simply don’t make the cut. As a high-end provider we want to reflect that positioning in the quality of wines we offer. Such wines are only a tiny fraction of those generally on offer in the market. We believe that an average score is a more conservative and representative approach, but it is still subjective and only offered as a guide to our customers, who will (and should) do their own research. We will add individual critic scores to our website in the future.
