Vincent Latour Meursault Grand Charrons 2021 750ml is a prestigious white Burgundy wine from the Meursault appellation in the Côte de Beaune, a region celebrated for producing some of the world's finest Chardonnay. Below is an analysis of this specific wine:
Wine Overview:
- Producer: Vincent Latour
- Region: Meursault, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
- Vineyard: Grand Charrons
- Vintage: 2021
- Grape Variety: Chardonnay
- Bottle Size: 750ml
- Alcohol Content: Typically around 13% - 13.5%
Tasting Notes:
- Appearance: The wine generally shows a vibrant golden color with a brilliant clarity, indicative of its purity and youth.
- Aroma: The bouquet is complex and elegant, featuring aromas of ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, intermingled with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a distinctive hazelnut and almond character typical of Meursault wines. Subtle hints of vanilla and toast may be present due to oak aging.
- Palate: On the palate, this wine is rich and full-bodied, with a creamy texture balanced by vibrant acidity. Flavors of lemon curd, ripe pear, and white peach dominate, accompanied by a touch of minerality and a long, persistent finish. The oak influence adds layers of vanilla, spice, and a slight smokiness without overpowering the fruit.
- Finish: The finish is long and elegant, with a lingering note of minerality and a refreshing lift from its well-integrated acidity.
Terroir and Winemaking:
- Vineyard Location: The Grand Charrons vineyard is known for its prime location within Meursault, contributing to the wine's complexity and depth. The vineyard's limestone-rich soils impart a pronounced minerality to the wine, while the cool climate of 2021 has likely enhanced its acidity and freshness.
- Vinification: The wine may have been fermented and aged in French oak barrels, with a portion of new oak used to add complexity and structure. The winemaking approach by Vincent Latour emphasizes the expression of terroir, with careful attention to preserving the natural balance and elegance of the wine.
