Maison Louis Latour Marsannay 2008 Beaune - Burgundy - France

Tasting Notes: Showing a pretty ruby red color, this Marsannay reveals a savory nose of red fruits. It is structured and elegant.

From The Winery: Marsannay is the village which marks the northern gateway to the Côte d'Or when leaving Dijon, the capital of Burgundy and home to the Ducs de Bourgogne. This village marks the beginning of the Route des Grands Crus which follows the N6 highway through the Côte d'Or. Wines from Marsannay are generally lively and robust; characteristics that come from the rich iron soil. Marsannay received its Appellation Contrôlée in 1987 in recognition of its consistently high quality wine.

Pairing: Roasted duck - "coq au vin" - lamb stew- mature cheeses.
