Louis Latour 'Grand Ardeche' Chardonnay

. Original price: . Final price: $19.99

Maison Louis Latour, a renowned Burgundy wine producer, brings its expertise to the Ardeche region with the Latour Ardeche Grand. This wine is crafted from Chardonnay grapes, showcasing the varietal's versatility outside its traditional Burgundy home. The Ardeche region, known for its limestone-rich soils, imparts a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit character, followed by aging in oak barrels to add complexity and depth. The resulting wine offers a vibrant flavor profile with notes of green apple, citrus, and a hint of vanilla from the oak. It has a balanced acidity and a smooth finish, making it an excellent pairing with seafood, poultry, and creamy cheeses.
