Maison Louis Latour

With two centuries of experience and family tradition, we craft only the most elegant wines that are perfectly balanced and rich in complex flavors born from their unique and distinguished terroir, or the character of the land. Using Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, our winemakers imprint each wine with an individual style found in the great terroirs of Burgundy.

One of the largest ​​Grand Cru owners in Burgundy

Domaine Louis Latour covers 48 hectares of vineyard, including 27 hectares of Grand Cru, and is the largest holding of Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy. The domain is centered in the village of Aloxe-Corton, which has been Latour's family home since the creation of the house.

Sustainable viticulture

Since the early 1990s, Maison Louis Latour has actively practiced sustainable viticulture and worked to preserve the ecosystems and biodiversity of their vineyards. Christophe Deola shares this vision and is actively following and developing the work already put in place by his predecessors. It is in this spirit that Maison Louis Latour chose to practice traditional viticulture techniques, where care of the soil is essential to allowing the vines to grow in the best conditions. Several examples of our commitment to preserving the ecosystem are the use of cover crops between rows, the production of our own compost, and alternative non-chemical pest control measures.

Innovation

Innovation has been at the core of Maison Louis Latour since our inception, and today, we are at the forefront of wine research in Burgundy. Our research investigates the impact of vinegrowing and winemaking on the climate, environment, and geological complexities of each parcel, as well as the genetic diversity of the vines in our vineyards.

Since 1996 our weather stations have been managed in partnership with the University of Dijon, the data collected has allowed us take better vineyard management decisions. In recent years this work has gone even further with an initiative called 'Paysage de Corton'. The initiative stems from the work begun by Maison Louis Latour and, in 2009, became an association with other growers from the village of Aloxe Corton.

This partnership between growers is unique and seeks to address the problems of erosion and drainage in the village's vineyards. It undertakes projects such as the planting of trees and hedges and the maintenance of beehives to promote biodiversity.
