Source copy retained to help verify the exact product; BottlePicker’s analysis above is based on structured identity and price evidence.

De Montille's Taillepieds is one of the true "flagships" of the domaine, and is a model of aromatic purity and precision. The nose is consistently floral and spicy with earthy elements, while the palate is structured with a tight, dense and tannic profile. Chewy in its youth, but purity and minerality are revealed with time. A serious and long-lived wine in the De Montille lineup. 100% whole cluster but shaped very differently. This is a much richer wine and the fruit swamps the stems. Generous cherry and raspberry, effortless balance, a beautiful bottle of Volnay in the making. The flavours come back in waves. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Oct 2024.Barrel Sample: 93-95 Utilizing 50% whole clusters, the 2023 Volnay Les Taillepieds 1er Cru has a fragrant bouquet with red cherries, strawberry fruit and potpourri, with the stems more assimilated here compared to the Les Mitans. Fresh and saline, the palate is medium-bodied with finely knit tannins and a brittle, chalky-textured finish. Give this at least a couple of years in bottle. This is very promising.Barrel Sample: 92-94
