2014 Louis Latour Pouilly-Vinzelles En-Paradis, Maconnais

Already known to the Romans, Vinzelles takes its name from the latin vincella which means small vine. The distinctive feature of the village of Vinzelles is the presence of two "châteaux" separated by just a few metres: a fortified castle from the 11th century and the other from the 13th and 17th centuries. From 50 hectares (122 acres) of essentially south, south-east facing vineyards, the appellation of Pouilly-Vinzelles encompasses the villages of Vinzelles and Loché. Continuing from the predominantly limestone slopes of Chaintré and Fuissé, the vineyards of Pouilly-Vinzelles are exclusively planted with Chardonnay and closely resemble those wines from its neighbour Pouilly-Fuissé.

Louis Latour Pouilly-Vinzelles En Paradis 2014 shows a nice pale yellow colour. On the nose, white fruits such as peach, but also brioche aromas. The mouth is rich and underlines yellow fruits and mango notes with a hint of pepper. A well-balanced and aromatic wine.
