Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru

Situation

Côte de Nuits

Level

AOC Grand cru

Grape variety

Pinot noir

This Grand Cru is located on the edge of Morey-Saint-Denis between the famed Monts Luisants and the Grand Cru Chambertin. Here, the poor calcareous clay soil overlies marls and Bajocian limestone containing crinoid fossils. A thin layer of silica is visible at the surface, which originates from the Grissard coomb. The name "Tricière" refers to the poor nature of the soil.

Tasting

Both delicate and intense, the nose opens up to scents of red and black fruit combined with subtle notes of rose, which will evolve over time toward more complex scents (spices, forest undergrowth, leather...). On the palate, this wine's structure is imposing, yet soft and silky. Perfect balance and a spectacular finish.

Food/wine pairing

Taste this wine with finely prepared roasted or stewed meats (beef, lamb, pork, game, duck), or with medium to mature cheeses.
Recipe suggestion: beef tenderloin with a red wine reduction

Serving and keeping

Serve at 16-17°C (60-62°F).
Long aging potential: 7 to 10 years and more.
