Pale gold with a nose of white flowers, hazelnut and ripe pear. The palate is rich yet precise, with citrus and a touch of buttered brioche, framed by fine acidity. Finish is long, saline and stony, classic Meursault.

About this wine
Louis Latour's Meursault Premier Cru Les Gouttes d'Or represents the pinnacle of white Burgundy craftsmanship. This renowned Meursault wine showcases the terroir of one of France's most celebrated appellations, where Chardonnay thrives in limestone-rich soils that impart distinctive mineral and saline characteristics. The Premier Cru designation reflects grapes sourced from some of the finest vineyard parcels in the region, meticulously selected and vinified to express the complexity and elegance Meursault is known for.
This full-bodied white wine balances citrus and green fruit notes with a creamy texture and refreshing acidity, making it a versatile choice for discerning palates. The saline minerality is a hallmark of quality Meursault production, offering depth and sophistication. Louis Latour's winemaking philosophy emphasizes respect for the fruit and terroir, resulting in wines of notable complexity and aging potential.
Pair this Premier Cru with fine seafood, white fish preparations, poultry dishes, and subtle cream sauces. Its elegance and structure also complement cheese courses and lighter shellfish preparations, making it an exceptional choice for fine dining settings, yacht galley service, or villa entertaining.
