Louis Latour Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru 2018

Corton - Grand Cru
€95.00 tax excl. (IB)

Corton, recognized as a Grand Cru since 1937, was already known in the 15th century, when the King of France kept this wine in his personal cellars. Once owned by the Dukes of Burgundy, this parcel became Corton "Clos du Roi" after the death of Charles le Téméraire, the last Duke of Burgundy, in 1477, thus becoming part of the royal domain. The vines, located on the eastern slope of the Corton hill, are cultivated in the traditional way by the Domaine Louis Latour winemakers. Rigorous pruning of the vines enables later harvesting, ensuring that the grapes are ripe and rich. This wine has great ageing potential.
