The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A standout discovery by the Selection Committee, Domaine Vincent Latour is a quiet force in Burgundy, known for its exceptional craftsmanship. For over a decade, Cécile and Vincent Latour have overseen 8 hectares of prime vineyards, spanning Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin, and Pommard, some of the region's most revered appellations.

With a deep respect for Burgundy's traditions, they craft wines that beautifully capture the balance between vibrant freshness and generous richness. Their Meursault, in particular, showcases a remarkable precision and complexity, offering a style that evolves gracefully over time—a true testament to their skill and passion.

Perfect for leisurely enjoyment over the next eight years, it has been awarded an impressive 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
