Winemaker Notes
This Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru “Cailleret” 2017 develops lovely aromas of vanilla and honeysuckle. The powerful palate carries flavors of grilled notes and almond. Great length and minerality on the finish.
Pairs well with charcuterie, fish, shellfish and goat cheeses.

COMMENTARY: The 2017 Louis Latour Chassagne-Montrachet Cailleret 1er Cru is an outstanding wine. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of chalky notes, tart apples, dried earth, and a suggestion of oak. Pair it with Panko-breaded, pan-fried Petrale sole. (Tasted: April 6, 2022, San Rafael, CA)

James Suckling
Impressive, mineral-infused lemon and peach aromas here, leading to a palate that has a fresh, fleshy and very taut feel. Elegance with power, super length and piercing drive here. One of the best Latour whites from 2017.

Wine Enthusiast
Structured and tense, this mineral-textured wine needs plenty of time before it is ready. The crisp texture promises perfumed acidity and plenty of freshness that should last for several years. Drink from 2022.
