"This is again from the domaineâs own vines and it is a noticeable step up from the nĂŠgociant bottling of Montmains this year. The bouquet is deep, reserved and complex, as it offers up scents of grapefruit, lime, wet stone, spring flowers and a topnote of straw. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and tightly-knit, with a rock solid core of fruit, great transparency, snappy acids and great focus and drive on the long, minerally finish. A superb premier cru."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
