Louis Latour Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2015

The 2015 Clos Vougeot has an intense and deep color with garnet hints. The nose is complex, unveiling aromas of blackcurrant, moka, undergrowth and a floral hint of violet. On tasting, it is powerful and ample with wonderful tannins, notes of cherry and coffee with a lot of persistence.

Starting in the XIIth century the Cistercian monks of Citeaux, owners of Clos Vougeot, cultivated vines here. They built the winery with four oak presses and the large cellar with capacity for 2000 barrels of wine. In the XVth century the "grand manoir" was built in the middle of the Clos and in the XIXth century all the buildings were restored by Léonce Bocquet. Clos Vougeot is the largest Grand Cru in Burgundy with 52 hectares of vines and over 80 different owners. The Clos itself is subdivided into many different localities.
