Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault Cuvée Charles Maxime

Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault Cuvée Charles Maxime is a high quality white wine produced by the renowned winery Domaine Latour-Giraud in Meursault, located in the heart of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy, France. This Cuvée Charles Maxime is a tribute to Charles Maxime Latour, a pioneer in the wine-growing history of the domain.

The Cuvée Charles Maxime is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes from various plots in the municipality of Meursault. The grapes come from both Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards, including Genevrières, Perrières, Porêts and Charmes. This diversity in origin ensures a complex and varied wine.

After manual harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented on natural yeasts in traditional oak barrels. The wine then matures in the cellar for 12 to 18 months, depending on the vintage and desired style.

The Meursault Cuvée Charles Maxime reveals a rich and complex aroma profile. Think white fruit, citrus fruits, peach, honey, brioche, toast, and mineral notes. The taste is full and powerful, with a perfect balance between fresh acidity and ripe fruit. The wine has a long, complex aftertaste with a mineral touch that remains long in the memory.

Wine - Food pairing

Meursault Cuvée Charles Maxime is perfect to serve with dishes with white meat, fish, shellfish, poultry and creamy sauces. The wine can also be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif or with a cheese plate with rich cheeses.
