Tasting notes
The 2021 Domaine de Montille Monthélie Rouge (Vin Nature) is a fresh and expressive Pinot Noir, produced in a natural style with no added sulfur, highlighting the purity of the fruit and terroir.
In the glass, it reveals a bright ruby color with lively reflections. The nose is fragrant and delicate, offering aromas of raspberry and red currant, complemented by floral notes of violet and peony.
On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied, with a supple, silky texture and vibrant freshness. The red fruit profile remains crisp and pure, supported by fine tannins and a subtle mineral backbone that carries through to a clean, elegant finish.
More About The Winery
The De Montille family has been a cornerstone of Burgundy for centuries, but the domaine’s reputation was firmly established in 1947, when Hubert de Montille inherited vineyards in Volnay. Hubert’s wines became legendary for their austere, structured style, built for long ageing.
Since the 1990s, Etienne de Montille has led the estate into a new era. Expanding into Pommard, Puligny-Montrachet, and beyond, he also integrated the former Château de Puligny-Montrachet holdings, creating one of the most impressive portfolios in the Côte d’Or.
Pioneering organic farming since 1995 and biodynamic practices since 2005, Domaine de Montille is now admired for wines that are both authentic and generous. The reds are vinified with whole clusters for aromatic depth and finesse, while the whites display precision, minerality, and purity.
Today, Domaine de Montille stands as one of Burgundy’s great names, producing world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that perfectly express their terroirs and continue to captivate collectors worldwide.
