Press review
    • Côtes de Beaune-Villages 2019 - Tom Lewis - UK - November 2022

      This Côte de Beaune Villages has a beautiful ruby ​​red colour and plenty of character with pleasant notes of strawberry and undergrowth. It can also be served slightly chilled. Pale translucent red with fresh red cherries and spice; fresh and juicily-fruited with red berries, some spice and gaminess. Well-structured with very low tannins and good acidity. Good+.

      Match with grilled meats, patés and terrines, seared tuna or chicken.


    • Côtes de Beaune-Villages 2013 - Western Mail - July 2016 - "It will certainly hit the spot"

      The Louis Latour Cotes de Beaune Villages 2013 will certainly hit the spot. With an elegant bouquet of spicy red fruits showing a little earthiness. The fruit has a crunchy freshness on the palate with soft raspberry tones mingling with weightier red cherry fruit. A silky smooth Burgundy from a fine negociant. By  Neil Cammies (UK)

    • Côte de Beaune-Villages 2013 - Jewish Telegraph - December 2015 - "Perfect pinot noir"

      Louis Latour Cote de Beaune-Villages 2013 will pair with almost anything, including cheese. You'll spot cherry and blackcurrant lurking quite noticeably in this perfect pinot noir - £21 Spirited Wines. By Paul Harris (UK)

    • Côte de Beaune-Villages 2013 - Profile Magazine - December 2015 - "Lovely weekend treat"

      A ruby red pinot noir that benefits from a little airing in a decanter to achieve its full glory. Cheery and blackcurrant flavours dominate both nose and mouth in this lovely weekend treat. By Ellen Beardmore (UK)

    • Côte de Beaune-Villages 2009 - Chris Kissack - January 2011 - 14.5-15/20Less depth of colour than the rather vibrant and appealing Santenay tasted alongside. Nevertheless there is a bright youthfulness here. Rather more solid style on the nose, more like fraise des bois here, littered with cherry skins and blackcurrant leaf. A touch angular on the palate, rather spiky too, but the fruit quality is fresh and the presence of the wine in the mouth is lively and appealing. A good effort. (UK)
    • Côte de Beaune-Villages 2004 - The Guernsey Press and Star - 6th June 2009 - "A well-made wine"From a famous Burgundian merchant who makes wines from all over the region, this has a fragant perfume with juicy raspberry and strawberry fruit, balanced with subtle oak, acidity and light tannins. A well-made wine that's typical of the house style. Goes well with most red meats, duck and regional cheeses.
    • 1996 Côte de Beaune Villages - Sunday Independent - November 2002 :Soft and warm on the palate with good light tannins and a pleasant flavourful finish. Lightish ruby in colour with hints of brick at the edges. A lighter style of Burgundy but still showing class and good varietal character.
