Domaine de Montille Puligny Montrachet Domaine de Montille 2017
A brilliant white vintage in Burgundy, and this just blew us away, even though it is ‘only’ a village wine – the majority of the grapes come from a 1.1ha of vines in 1er cru Les Chalumeaux which was downgraded when it was badly replanted in 1975 (under the previous owner). The two other plots are located in Lervron and Baudrières-Nosroy, and together make this a stunning wine, cleanly-spliced fruits, lemongrass and cold ash, with the slate tongue-scraping minerality of great white Burgundy. Opened on the night my website went live also, making it extra special. 20% new oak.
