Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is white Burgundy at its most generous: a 2022 Premier Cru Chardonnay from the Les Referts vineyard in Puligny-Montrachet, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, made by the historic Maison Louis Latour. It opens with grilled almond, citrus peel, honey and a delicate floral lift, then fills the palate with ripe peach, apple tart, lemon cake, praline and butterscotch. What keeps all that richness in line is the structure. Lively acidity, a mineral backbone and well-integrated oak add spice and vanilla without crowding the fruit, and the finish lingers on seashore minerality and sweet peach. It suits the drinker who loves textured, creamy Chardonnay but wants precision too, and it makes a natural step up for anyone exploring Burgundy's Premier Cru tier. Collectors will appreciate that it is expressive now yet built to evolve over the next 7 to 10 years. We carry it because it shows a classic appellation honestly, with real depth at the table and in the cellar.
Pairs well with
- Lobster with herb butter — The wine's creamy texture and butterscotch notes echo the butter, while its lively acidity and mineral backbone keep the richness of the lobster in check.
- Brie and Comté cheese board — Praline and grilled almond flavors meet the nutty depth of Comté, and the wine's freshness cuts cleanly through creamy Brie.
- Celebratory seafood dinner — Paired with scallops or fish in a creamy sauce, its ripe peach, lemon cake and seashore minerality make an elegant centerpiece for a special evening.

How should I serve it, and does it need decanting?
How should I serve it, and does it need decanting?
Serve it slightly chilled at 50-55°F (10-13°C) so its full range of aromas and flavors can show. Decanting for 20-30 minutes helps it open up and reveal its layered complexity, though it can also be enjoyed straight from the bottle.
Can I cellar this 2022 vintage?
Can I cellar this 2022 vintage?
Yes. It is already approachable and expressive in its youth, but it has excellent aging potential. Over the next 7-10 years the fruit should grow more complex while the mineral and spice notes deepen, making it a fine candidate for cellaring.
