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.

The image of the Pommard appellation in general is totally influenced by the Rugiens: masculine, powerful, slightly rustic wines. It is undoubtedly the great vintage of Pommard! It has always been recognised for its personality and quality.
"La Favorite" is a parcel selection of Mercurey 1er Cru "Le Clos du Roy" from vines located on the south-east facing hillside.
Fifty-year-old vine, in a single block, located on the hillside, near Pommard 1er cru Pezerolles and Épenots. Rich wine with lots of character. Mixture of red and black fruits with a slightly wild touch. Silky attack, with very present aromas, giving it a good length at the end of the mouth.
