Indulge in Grand Cru quality!

April 23, 2025

We often come across standout wines and feel compelled to pound the table when the quality far exceeds the price.  

The 2022 Louis Latour Beaune 1er Cru Les Vignes Frances is such a wine.  It hails from the heart of the Côte de Beaune district in Burgundy - from a stellar vintage, we might add.  

Louis Latour, a name synonymous with quality and tradition, nailed the expression of this parcel, known for producing wines with plush fruit, delightful balance, and gorgeously integrated structure and tannins. 

"Here's an extremely concentrated, delightfully sweet and elegant Beune 1er cru that glides over your palate. Grand cru sophsitication thanks to the fineness of the tannins and the way they interlock with the lively acidity. There's the Amarena cherry character we associate with this site, but also a lovely brioche!" James Suckling 

Red Burgundies can often be high-toned or "tight" when young and need several years to soften and integrate.  Reminiscent of fresh ripe cherries on a summer day, the 2022 Latour Beaune, right out of the glass, strutted its textured fruit all while retaining classic Burgundy finesse and structure. 

 

Most recently, it was a pleasure to drink alongside grilled salmon and asparagus.  

 

Whether you're looking to enhance a special dinner, add a touch of sophistication to your evening, or expand your collection with a gorgeous red Burgundy, the Louis Latour Beaune Vignes Franches 1er Cru is an excellent choice! 

 

We have a limited allocation of this highly sought-after wine available. 

 

We encourage you to act quickly! 

 

Enjoy!

“Grand cru sophistication.”

James Suckling • 96 / 100

"Here’s an extremely concentrated, delightfully sweet and elegant Beaune 1er cru that glides over your palate. Grand cru sophistication thanks to the fineness of the tannins and the way they interlock with the lively acidity. There’s the Amarena cherry character we associate with this site, but also a lovely brioche richness right through the long, silky finish."
