Bright yellow/gold color. Aromas of orchard fruit, fragrant white flowers and raw nuts. Flavors of golden delicious apple, unripe peaches, nectarines, lemon zest and those raw nuts. Long, lingering flinty/mineral driven finish. No sign of oak aging. Medium bodied and quite vibrant. Nicely structured and pretty intense. Great value. Thanks so much for the Latour Red/White Burgundy Tasting, Kase! — 2 months ago

This bottling showed up at my Costco for $26.99. On experience, I thought it must be a pretty good burgundy value. Louis Latour a pretty good grower, producer & Negociant. So, I bought one. I was going to do a Premier Cru Chablis, but thought I’d try this tonight. 2023 also an amazing white burgundy vintage. And of course, to see if I wanted a few more.
This nose shows; sour green apple, golden apple, kiwi, lime, lemon, pineapple, white stone fruit, light orange citrus blend, honeysuckle, some dry herbs, vanilla, cream, caramel, dry twig/tree bark, beautiful chalkiness, limestone & volcanic powder, white & yellow lilies w/ greens.
The palate is round, viscous and waxy. Green apple, golden apple, kiwi, lime, lemon, pineapple, apricots, white stone fruit, light orange citrus blend, honeysuckle-comb, some dry herbs, vanilla, cream, caramel, butterscotch, touch of mint, graham crackers, dry twig/tree bark, beautiful chalkiness, dry limestone & volcanic powder, gentle white spice with almost a Meursault mineral & saline character, white & yellow lilies w/ greens, grand, round, rainfall acidity, well knitted, balance for days with an elegantly, smartly polished finish that lasts nearly two-minutes.
91-92.
I believe the key to enjoying white burgundy is to let it warm to 55-61, not 46-48. Leave warmer climate, well wooded Chardonnay to the well chilled. Or, not well made Chardonnay…it cover up its flaws. Warmer temps bring out the flavor & beauty of good Chardonnay. — 22 days ago
Delicious, well balanced on the richer but still acidic side with long finish. Caught it in a good window of 11 years I think — 2 months ago

Crisp golden apple, silky mouthfeel, very bright finish — 5 years ago
Pop and pour, notes from 45 min open. Lovely, and my best bottle..also my last '12. On the nose: lemon, soft ginger, a touch of honey, some sour apple. On the palate: excellent acidity and density, mirroring the nose. Paired with baked whole branzino, stuffed with onions and herbs...yum. — 5 years ago

Yellow with aromas of apple, pear, honeysuckle, and dandelions. A nice minerality with nice acidity and long finish. Great with our Lobster Mac and Cheese done on the smoker. — 6 months ago
Astonishing find, single bottle from AA way back, powerful, subtle, complex, mouth-coating, yet lifted into long finish. Wow. From ‘30s vines and just missed 1cru due to slanted exposition. Stunner — 8 months ago

A lighter styled Pouilly-Fuisse. Very pale color. I love the delicate nose: white peach, a squeeze of lemon juice, wet limestone minerality. Fairly chiseled in the mouth, favoring stony minerality over fat fruit. Pretty good acids. I’d prefer a bit more fruit and flesh, but this is nice at the price. — 2 days ago
