This flavorful wine provides a very pleasant Burgundian white wine experience for only $580.
The Lugny vineyard was planted with Chardonnay vines 30 years ago and is considered one of the top white wine vineyards in southern Burgundy's Maconnais region. The fine terroir of Macon-Lugny, Les Genievres is apparent in the wine's flowery bouquet and clean fruity flavor. This golden colored wine offers flavors of green apple and unripe pears and has a clean slightly acid finish. Overall the wine has impressive balance for an inexpensive wine. Enjoy this wine with European style salads like Salad Nicoise, French Green Been Salad and Chickory Lettuce with Fried Mushrooms and Bacon Cubes. This wine also matches well with classic Chinese appetizers like Drunken Chicken and Smoked Sliced Cold Fish. Serve this wine chilled, about 10℃.
Since the early 1700s, the Latour family have owned vineyards in Burgundy. By the mid 1800s the family was actively marketing its wines to the US and other European countries. This very successful family run business is now managed by the seventh generation Louis Latour.
