Domaine de Montille - Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru White 2023

Grape

100% Chardonnay

Tasting notes

Corton-Charlemagne is Burgundy's proving ground for power and precision at once, and the 2023 Domaine de Montille Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, a 100% Chardonnay, delivers on both rich, powerful, and remarkably balanced.

The nose opens with ripe apple, citrus fruit, and white flowers, then turns toward hawthorn, spice, licorice, and crushed-rock minerality. On the palate the wine is creamy and dense yet fresh, showing real depth through grapefruit and lemon before settling into a long, saline 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.
