Louis Latour Grand Ardèche Chardonnay 2023

Louis Latour Grand Ardèche Chardonnay 2023 is an elegant and full-bodied white wine from the Ardèche region in southern France. Although not from Burgundy, it is vinified with the same expertise and method that Louis Latour uses in their classic white wines from the Côte d'Or. It is an excellent example of how the Chardonnay grape can thrive outside its traditional homeland.
