Why You'll Love It

Louis Latour is one of Burgundy's most celebrated négociants, and their decision to plant Pinot Noir in the hills of Provence was a bold one but the results speak for themselves. Valmoissine consistently delivers the variety's hallmark finesse and red fruit character, with a distinctly southern freshness that sets it apart from its Burgundian cousins. If you love Pinot Noir but want something a little different, this is the bottle to explore.

Vineyard & Production

The vineyard averages 15-year-old vines with modest yields of 35 hectolitres per hectare to preserve quality and concentration. Grapes are carefully selected at full maturity before traditional fermentation in open vats for gentle extraction of colour and aromatics. The wine is then aged for 10–12 months in stainless steel to maintain its freshness and vibrant fruit character.

Tasting Notes

Deep garnet-red in colour. A complex nose of blackcurrant and forest undergrowth. The palate is full-bodied, round, and well-structured — subtle notes of blackcurrant and raspberry, balanced tannins, and a fresh, persistent finish that reveals the wine's refinement and elegance.

Perfect Pairings

Versatile and food-friendly. Excellent with grilled red meats, duck breast, a variety of cheeses, and dishes incorporating red fruits. Equally at home at a casual dinner or a more refined occasion.
