Vincent Latour Meursault Rouge 'Les Cras' Premier Cru 2018

Product description

Vincent is hand-crafting exceptional Meursault from eight hectares of vines. His father used to sell off their grapes, but when Vincent took over from him in 1998, he decided to bottle all of their production, roughly 4,000 cases. Vincent made improvements over the years, including using whole cluster fermentation, integrating demi-muids and foudres into the mix, and a longer élévage. A mix of used and new demi-muids, barrels, and foudres are used for aging to control the oak influence better. Work in the vineyard follows lutte raisonée methods, and native yeasts are used for fermentation. After pressing, must goes into 600L barrels or foudres. 

The winery's name was changed from Latour-Labille to Domaine Latour, starting with the 2010 vintage.
