Maison De Montille, Chablis Premier Cru 'Les Fourchaumes', Domaine de Montille 2022
Domaine de Montille is one of Burgundy’s most revered estates and this burgeoning family property is very much at the top of its game, producing wines of exceptional quality: scintillating, proper Burgundies, unusually across both reds and whites. Features as one of the Top 10 Côte de Beaune Red Wine Producers and Top 10 Côte de Beaune White Wine Producers in Tim Atkin's Burgundy 2022 Special Report. Self-confessed ‘acid freak’ Brian Sieve was especially careful with battonage and lees-stirring of the Chardonnays in 2022, to maintain freshness and verve, noting that it was not a high acid vintage. A little less new oak (not that there is ever more than just enough) and whole bunches in the reds than in the previous solar vintages, plus the gentler acid profile means the wines have a charm and immediacy to rival any vintage we’ve tasted from the domaine.
Meursault Les Clous, Domaine Éric Boigelot 2019
Les Clous 2019 is a superb white Burgundy, a Lieu-dit on the same elevation as Narvaux but with a unique Saint-Christophe viewpoint. Neal Martin recently tasted the domaine’s 2023s and described Les Clous as “ thoroughly enjoyable ” and “ quintessential Meursault. ” The 2019 vintage is drinking beautifully now, showing classic Meursault richness, citrus-driven freshness, and that silky, precise texture that makes Boigelot so compelling. “Every time I taste this wine I am blown away by the quality and price point. I've now taken it along to multiple dinners where it is usually wine of the night, against some stiff (and expensive) competition and yet to meet anybody that doesn't love it too. Top tip - stick it in a decanter for an hour if you are able and it will open up beautifully.” James, Wine Guru “Lieu dit on same elevation as Narvaux but other side of town up by Saint Christophe view point. Cereal crops, ripe pears, salted butter nose. Palate is more linear than aromas suggest, with vibrant acidity, a touch of smoke and white stone dust, spicy, sweet and supple, refreshingly green-edged.” Tom, Head Wine Guru
