Description
The home of predominantly red wines from the Pinot Noir grape, the vineyards extend over 225 acres covering the continuation of the Volnay slope and a broad basin behind the village itself which runs back northwards to link up with the Pommard hinterland. The Monthélie by Maison Louis Latour marries the fragrant Pinot Noir with finesse, displaying a delicate, charming bouquet and corresponding freshness and lightness on the palate. An intense, perfumed finish completes the experience often said to resemble violets, especially in years of high concentration.
