About the winery · Henry Fessy / Maison Louis Latour ›

Maison Louis Latour moved into Beaujolais in 2008 and its Beaujolais presence is closely tied to Henry Fessy's domaine. The producer describes the heart of Henry Fessy's domaine on the Plateau de Bel-Air in the Brouilly area, where granite-schist soils and a sunny microclimate shape fruity, silky Gamay-based wines. The estate emphasizes hand work, respect for nature, limited yields, and traditional vinification rather than carbonic maceration. Current Maison Louis Latour Julienas appears to represent the same Beaujolais cru style historically sold in the U.S. under the Henry Fessy name.
