Louis Latour, Chevalier Montrachet Demoiselles other_regionsHere too there are residual fermentation and wood based aromas dominating the fruit. Otherwise there is good freshness and vibrancy to the concentrated big bodied flavors that possess a discreet stony quality that carries over to the beautifully long, dry and well balanced finish. Like several of the wines in the range this is less elegant than it typically is but it is certainly imposing. (92 94) 2022+

This incredibly concentrated effort is a positively stunning and completely classic Corton-Charlemagne that is built to age

blue berry and a bit of oak gives way to beautifully textured middle weight flavors that also terminate in a finish that displays a mild dryness though here it’s less pronounced

petrol and acacia blossom aromas

One day the Lazzarito may challenge the Rocche as Viettis signature Barolo

Classic ruby

Les Seuvrées

And a tiny hint of dried fruit on the end

Dark red cherry

Moderate wood and menthol scents suffuse the similar aromas of plum

(100% from vines in Aloxe and all domaine fruit)

It’s gourmet

reminded me of Casanova di Neri’s Cerretalto Brunello (made with grapes grown at the opposite end of the Montalcino territory)
