With a wonderful garnet red colour, our Corton Grand Cru Perrieres 2014 reveals an intense nose of cherry, undergrowth and liquorice. The mouth is round and the tannins are suple. The wine is powerful and offers a beautiful lenght. Surely a wine to be kept.

Located on the hill of the Corton Grand Crus at an altitude of 273 meters in an old stone quarry, the 'Perrieres' parcel of vines has a perfect south-easterly exposition. Our Cuverie Corton Grancey is embedded in this terroir. There are brown and red clay soils which produce a delicious and intense wine. The well-aged vines are managed in a traditional way by Domaine Louis LATOUR. Severe pruning allows a later harvest and ensures a good level of maturity and richness in the grapes.
