Thomas indicated that this had just been bottled and not surprisingly, there are notes of unabsorbed sulfur and reduction. More interesting are the dense but highly energetic, tautly muscular and mineral-driven middleweight plus flavors that flash excellent power on the compact, serious and built-to-age finale. Latour has a justly deserved reputation for this wine and the 2021 version should only add to it.

The family-run company of Maison Louis Latour is one of the most highly-respected negociant-éléveurs in Burgundy. Renowned throughout the world for the quality of its red and white wines, the company has built a reputation for tradition and innovation.
Regarded as one of the traditional negociant-eleveurs, Maison Louis Latour is the producer of some of the finest Burgundian wines but has also pioneered the production of fine wines from outside of the confines of Burgundy.
These wines from the Ardeche and the Chateaux de Verdon are slowly gaining esteem for their unmatchable quality outside of Burgundy.
The Latour family themselves have been viticulteurs since the 17th century, slowly building up a unique Domaine of 50 hectares (125 acres). This Domaine has the largest Grand Cru property in the Cote d'Or with a total of 28,63 hectares (71,58 acres) . The vineyards extend from Chambertin in the north to Chevalier-Montrachet in the south and are solely planted with the two noble grape varieties ; Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
