2022 Domaine de Montille - Bourgogne Rouge (750ml)

Domaine de Montille is one of the great names of the Côte de Beaune. The late Hubert de Montille built its reputation in Volnay, and his son Étienne has since grown the estate to some 37 hectares across the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, with an organic, now biodynamic approach. This is a seriously sourced Bourgogne, from a Volnay parcel plus rare Pinot Noir plots in Puligny. About a third of the bunches are fermented whole, a signature of the house, which adds lift and spice. The 2022 is generous and fresh: black cherry, dark berries, raspberry and a hint of cola, with peppery notes from the stems, velvety tannins and a bright, spicy finish. Real grand-domaine character at a Bourgogne price. Lovely with roast chicken, duck, mushrooms or salmon
