On the nose; poached strawberries, cherries, bing cherries, cooked rhubarb, dry cranberries, faint spice, light vanilla, limestone and fresh red florals. The mouthfeel is lean to medium and very juicy. Tannins completely resolved. Strawberries, cherries, bing cherries, cooked rhubarb, dry cranberries, cola, steeped tea, faint spice, limestone minerals, loamy soils, faint spice, touch of vanilla, herbal notes, soft high acidity and lean, elegant, long, fruit finish. Even though this was likely a little better two years ago, it's good but certainly a little disappointing for Grand Cru Burgundy. History notes...the Louis Latour family first bought vines in the Cote de Beaune in 1731, with land in some of the top Burgundy vineyards. Louis Latour is currently run by the seventh Louis Latour, Louis-Fabrice Latour featured in the photo. They are a huge négociant with property holdings in Aloxe-Corton (their largest holdings) and Corton-Charlemagne. They also own parts of Corton Clos de la Vigne au Saint Grand Cru, Corton Bressandes Grand Cru, Corton Les Chaumes Grand Cru, Corton Les Pougets Grand Cru, Corton Les Perrières Grand Cru, Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru, Corton Les Grèves Grand Cru. Also, own parts of the Premiers Crus“Les Chaillots”, “Les Founières”, Chambertin, Romanée-Saint-Vivant and Chevalier-Montrachet “Les Demoiselles." They use French oak vats for short period of fermentation on nearly all their red wines. Then...they spend 12 months in French oak barrels. The red wines of Domaine Louis Latour are still vinified and aged at Corton Grancey featured in the photo. — 8 years ago
Impressive wine, especially for the price (below €8 in a normal supermarket). Lots of structure and great tannins – and a very gourmand, lingering finish. Great buy! — 8 years ago
The acidity is very high. You should keep at least for 3-5 years more to drink this wine. — 9 years ago
Intermarche, excellent mineral wine. Around 10e — 9 years ago
The winning wine of the night (and by far the youngest, barely out of the barrel!). My 1st Pacalet and what a charm. "Luscious" was my note, stemmy with a Barolo zingy vibe. Beautifully extracted waves of light fruit, mouth-coating and long. Elegant. Could not believe it was a '12 - mis-labeled bottle? What a great find, Chris! Seek these out.

メオ・カミュぜが手掛けるヴォーヌ・ロマネの1級畑レ・ショーム2012。何1つ突出しておらず、アタック、アロマ、酸どれもがエレガントで、完璧なバランス。いい意味で特徴が無い。流石メオ・かミュゼ。お見事! — 7 years ago
2012 vintage. Excellent. Paired well with truffle Tremor and surprisingly with Chaumes cheeses. — 8 years ago

Sandalwood, pencil shavings, dark cherries, toasty, and burdock root. Initially split between VR or NSG. Structure and minerality gave way to NSG. Opened up a bit but rather linear. Very interesting contrast to the Vosne Romanee Les Chaumes 2014 I recently tried. At least to me, this had the signature CLB characteristic nose, without betraying the terroir. The Les Chaumes had a more floral and pretty nose, but less structure versus the Aux Cras. The two plots are roughly 250 meters apart. That's terroir for you. — 7 years ago
