Launay-Horiot
"There was occasionally a clarity that reminded me of Armand Rousseau" Neal Martin on Domaine Launay Horiot
Owned by ex-Air Force pilot Xavier Horiot, this family-run domaine has been operating in Pommard since the 18th century. Though relegated to obscurity for a generation, it has been revived by the current owner and his wine, and presently there are few producers in the region more modern and compelling than Launay-Horiot. With vines in the best crus of the Côte de Beaune as well as some limited Grands Crus from the Nuits, this is a sterling range of wines from a producer that rapidly on the ascent.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)Raised in 30% new wood and 70% 1 year old. Solid purple with medium depth. The nose starts on the oak and soon moves to the fruit. Very succulent again, smoothly balanced with a firm grip to the tannins. Yet it is suavely put together. High class, and it certainly has the length. Tasted: October 2019 |
