His father used to sell off their grapes, but when Vincent took over from his father in 1998, he decided to bottle all of their production, roughly 4,000 cases. Vincent made some improvements over the years, including using whole cluster fermentation, integrating demi-muids into the mix, and a longer élévage. A mix of used and new demi-muids and barrels are used for aging in order to have better control of the oak influence. Work in the vineyard follows lutte raisonée methods and native yeasts are used for fermentation.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-11T11:15:08-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-06T09:22:32-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","MK0601","Other_Wine","Producer_Vincent Latour","Region_Burgundy","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":49999,"price_min":49999,"price_max":49999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42667498078346,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Vincent Latour | Meursault les Charmes 1er cru","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":49999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/64_e580932a-9682-4094-a8bc-f664c2a58e5c.png?v=1673015096"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/64_e580932a-9682-4094-a8bc-f664c2a58e5c.png?v=1673015096","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Vincent Latour | Meursault les Charmes 1er cru at CaskCartel.com","id":23920463413386,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.398,"height":1023,"width":407,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/64_e580932a-9682-4094-a8bc-f664c2a58e5c.png?v=1673015096"},"aspect_ratio":0.398,"height":1023,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/64_e580932a-9682-4094-a8bc-f664c2a58e5c.png?v=1673015096","width":407}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2018 | Vincent Latour | Meursault les Charmes 1er cru\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere the nose is very pretty with its fresh, ripe and classic Meursault aromas of hazelnut, acacia and white orchard fruit scents.
