Domaine de Montille - Meursault 1er Cru 'Les Perrieres' White 2023

Grapes

100% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes

The 2023 Domaine de Montille Meursault 1er Cru 'Les Perrières' is a serious, mineral-driven white Burgundy with vibrant tension, showing aromas of crushed stones, white flowers, and citrus, matched by a focused, powerful palate with bright acidity and great depth.

A prominent mineral core of crushed rock and flinty overtones is joined by delicate white flowers, hawthorn, fresh citrus, and ripe pear hints, with a touch of attractive, youthful reduction still evident in the cellar.

Intense and focused, the structure is nimble yet powerful, driven by razor-sharp, fresh, energetic acidity into a long, stone-inflected, expanding 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.
