Assiduous Wine Advocate readers may note that Latour’s Meursault Cromin does not appear in the above list of the estate’s wines. That is because Latour has opted to include it in his assemblage of the Meursault Cuvee Charles Maxime. The 2002 bursts from the glass with loads of white flower-laced spices. Medium-bodied, satiny-textured, and broad, it is a resiny, fresh wine packed with rich layers of stones. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. Jean-Pierre Latour defines the 2002 vintage for white Burgundies as “tenderness plus fruit, like 1992 but with the freshness of 1996.” He went on to add that he was “stupefied by the completeness of the 2002s. Analytically, they are like the 2000s, but tender, not square like the 2000s.” This estate began harvesting its wines on the 20th of September.
