Latour Meursault Goutte d'Or Premier Cru 2019

Situated just south of Volnay and Pommard in the Côte de Beaune, Meursault is the most extensive southerly white wine commune of the Côte-d'Or. Meursault "Goutte d'Or" is the first Premier Cru found when leaving the village in the direction of Puligny-Montrachet. The parcel of vines was given this name ('drop of gold') because of the quantity of flint in the soil. These flints have both the shape and colour of 'drops of gold'. Entirely like the drops of wine which this land produces! The wine itself is as one would expect it to be with a powerful nose and rich palate. The wine prefered by Thomas Jefferson.

“Taut and vibrant, this white exhibits macerated peach, butterscotch and toasty oak flavours. A beam of citrus shines through as this turns more precise on the lingering finish. Best from 2025 through 2030+.” 95 points James Suckling
