Louis Latour Meursault-Blagny 'Chateau de Blagny' Premier Cru 2020

Louis Latour Meursault-Blagny 'Château de Blagny' Premier Cru 2020 is an elegant, terroir-driven white Burgundy crafted from hand-harvested Chardonnay grapes grown in the unique high-elevation hamlet of Blagny, overlooking Meursault. Fermented and matured for 8 to 10 months in traditional French oak barrels (15% new), it displays a pale yellow hue in the glass. The complex nose opens with seductive aromas of white acacia flowers, toasted brioche, fresh citrus, and subtle grilled almond. On the palate, it is rich, generous, and textured, delivering flavors of white peach, lemon oil, and baking spice balanced by a fine line of racy tension, refreshing acidity, and a long, flinty, mineral-driven finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with rock lobster, pan-seared scallops, salmon with sorrel sauce, roasted poultry, wild mushroom ragù, and aged Comté cheese.
