Description / Reviews

"Our Puligny-Montrachet mostly comes from a 1.1 ha plot located in the AOC Puligny 1er cru “Les Chalumeaux” which was downgraded to village when it was replanted in 1975 by the INAO because the former owner had brought around 20cm of exogenous soil, which is prescribed by the AOC specifications. It is the only village vine located in the middle of the hillside, in the middle of the 1er Crus. Over the years, both erosion and our organic practices resulted in the roots plunging deeper towards the original terroir. This explains how come our Puligny-Montrachet shows unusual density and complexity for a village wine. The other two plots are “Les Levrons” and “Boudrières – Nosroyes” for 0.38 ha." - Domaine de Montille, Winemaker

"An exuberantly floral-suffused nose displays additional breadth in the form of pear, apple and lemon rind scents. The round, caressing and delicious yet punchy medium weight flavors also conclude in a clean, dry and solidly complex and persistent finale. While this should easily reward 5 to 8 years of keeping, it could also be approached young. (Drink starting 2029)." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

"The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet Village has a clean and precise bouquet. Eight percent comes from Chalumaux, which explains its quality. The palate is very well balanced and approachable, with a fine bead of acidity and touch of spice on the finish. Perhaps here the aromatics promise more than the palate delivers? (Drink between 2026-2034)" - Neal Martin, Vinous
