  • Louis Latour: Expectation for Asia Rises with US Setback
    Louis Latour: Expectation for Asia rises with US setback With Trump administration’s punitive taxes corking French wine sales in the US, expectation on Asia to perform for the coming yea r is rising to make up for losses in the states, says Burgundy’s historic producer Maison Louis Latour’s Asia Export Director. By Natalie Wang With Trump administration’s punitive taxes corking French wine sales in the US, expectation on Asia to perform for the coming year is rising to make up for losses in the states, says Burgundy’s historic producer Maison Louis Latour’s Asia Export Director. Starting from October 18, French wine exports including the country’s two popular exports Bordeaux and Burgundy are faced with a newly imposed punitive tariff of 25%, as part of US$7.5 billion of extra levies on a wide range of goods from Italian cheese to fabrics. Aside from French wines, wines from Germany, the UK and Spain will be levied the additional tariff except Italy, Hungary, Champagne and sparkling wines. The news was met with dismay for French wine producers and prompted more estates to ramp up efforts in Asia to offset possible losses in the US. “At the moment America is very important for Burgundy, so a big impact,” says Mark Allen, Asia Export Director of Maison Louis Latour when interviewed in Hong Kong recently. “This is surely going to put more pressure on Asia to perform next year.” US is still the top export market for French wine and spirits outside of the EU, contributing €3.2 billion worth of sales in 2018, more than three times that of China (€1 billion), according to figures released by Business France.

Balance is a key word in winemaking, the same applies to the marketing of a company celebrating this year his 220 years anniversary! Being able to deal with both tradition and innovation has always been one of our keys to success. On that regard, the last year was no exception, a large part of our time was dedicated to the launch of an innovative product, crafted around our most traditionnal grape variety... Fruit of a five years project, our Pinot Noir “Les Pierres Dorées”, born in september 2015, flew out of the nest at the end of 2016! Maintain “harmony” in the product mix is another key to success.

  • Inside Louis Latour
    Inside Louis Latour Maison Louis Latour is everything a wine company should be. It makes delicious and interesting wines for every level, from the collector to the after-work drinker. It is family-run – the current chairman, Louis-Fabrice Latour, is the seventh Louis in the post – and although it turns over €68m ($72.3m) and makes 5m bottles a year, it has the intimacy and friendliness of a far smaller company. It employs winemakers and technical experts of international renown, and it has a pioneering attitude, opening up new regions, reviving forgotten varieties, and experimenting with terroir. Deep roots Louis Latour must be an exciting company to work for. Here, for example, is Laurent Chevalier, the energetic oenologist at Henry Fessy, the Beaujolais producer that Louis Latour bought in 2008. He’s particularly excited this autumn morning at the tail-end of harvest. He’s showing the first release of the first Pinot Noir to be commercially produced in Beaujolais. Pierre Dorées comes from 25 ha of Pinot Noir – some of it planted by Louis Latour, some of it from old parcels of vines that have survived from the 1970s – in the Pierres Dorées region in the far south of Beaujolais. Chevalier is delighted with the wine. It’s fresh and ripe, is unmistakeably Pinot Noir, with the lightness and lifted fruit of Beaujolais but with a certain richness, or fatness, that bespeaks a wine from further north. “It’s M Latour’s baby, this wine,” Chevalier says. Latour told Meininger’s he considers it “a visionary project, with multiple issues…I was very attentive to the development of this new vineyard, from planting to harvesting, winemaking style and packaging.” Louis-Fabrice Latour has been in charge of Maison Louis Latour for over 15 years, succeeding his father (Louis) in 1999 to the chairmanship of one of the most renowned – and one of the oldest – négociant-éleveurs of Burgundy.

  • Louis Latour Continues Quest for Affordable Sites Outside of Burgundy
    Louis Latour continues quest for affordable sites outside of Burgundy By Jo Gilbert Maison Louis Latour has been ramping up its search for the best slopes for its hero Pinot Noir grape outside of Burgundy as a way of offering customers “stable” wine prices. The Burgundian producer has an extensive domain of 48 ha across the Cote D’Or, where it has been making wine for over 200 years. More recently however, and in light of ever increasing land prices, the estate has been pushing outwards to Beaujolais in the south – where the 2011 regulation change has made it possible to produce Pinot Noir in a traditional Burgundian style, with elevation and on limestone soil – as well as to Provence. The newest releases of the two newer sites were discussed at a virtual tasting yesterday (May 20), where around 35 participants joined Maison Louis Latour brand ambassador Florian Migeon to talk through making flagship grape Pinot Noir outside of its Burgundy homestead. “We think it’s good to think ahead of time and be visionary in our approach to keeping affordable options in our price range," Migeon said. "It’s what we did with Ardèche and Chardonnay back when we first moved outside of Burgundy in the 1970s and 1980s. The Bourgogne Chardonnay was fluctuating in price, and the quality was not always linked with the price. “Every year we have this now, because of the scarcity of the product, things become more and more expensive, even in vintages that are not seen as great vintages. So we decided to push out of Burgundy for that exact reason, so we can have vineyards that enable us to progress, and to make great wine that remains stable in price over a longer time period.” Migeon also explained how the introduction of the Coteaux Bourguignons regulation that was introduced in 2011 factored in to the creation of Les Pierres Dorees Pinot Noir, first released in 2015.
