Today,
Bernard's two sons Julien and Emilien Latour are working on the domain after
going through wine-related education. Bernard has retired in
part and has a sale in Sablet with the domain wines in a building formerly known
as Cave Genets - a wine cellar for Cecile Chassagne.
A new storage basement has been built on the domain in 2011 and
outdoor fermentation tanks were
built a few years later.
Since 2013 the vineyards have been certified agriculture biologique.
