The de Montille Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chalumeaux 2018 is a sublime expression of Chardonnay from the renowned Burgundy region of France. A legacy of the esteemed de Montille winery, established in the 17th century, this premier cru demonstrates the perfect amalgamation of the tradition and innovation integral to de Montille's winemaking approach.

On the palate, this elegant yet complex wine reveals layers of ripe stone fruit, subtle floral notes, and a distinctive minerality sustained by a refined acidity. The 2018 vintage in particular stands out for its balance and longevity, evoking the classic Puligny-Montrachet style. A true reflection of its terroir, the de Montille Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chalumeaux 2018 is a timeless classic every fine wine connoisseur should have in their collection. |

The de Montille Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chalumeaux 2018 is an exquisite white burgundy, epitomising the traditional melange of purity, elegance, and terroir character. Produced within the famed Puligny-Montrachet appellation in France's Burgundy region, it encapsulates the choice, hand-harvested Chardonnay grapes' distinct flavours. Famed winemakers, de Montille, have applied traditional vinification methods, predominantly utilising aged French oak barrels, imbuing the wine with character and complexity. This 2018 vintage enjoys a delicate balance of luscious fruitiness and crisp minerality. Remarkably expressive on the nose, this wine presents a bouquet of honeyed pear, crisp apple, and subtle vanilla. On the palate, it carries a vibrant acidity, buttery texture, and an impressive long-lasting finish. de Montille, a globally esteemed wine estate, has been faultlessly producing this sophisticated nectar since 1951. Their Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chalumeaux 2018 is an undoubted testament to their commitment to crafting world-class wines. This is a must-have addition for any serious wine collection. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (91-93)The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru matures in just over 20% new oak, has an attractive bouquet, a little more complex than the Chalumaux with orange pith and Mirabelle aromas. The palate is well balanced with a slightly soft entry, but there is a fine line of acidity that tightens everything up, leading to a stony, malic finish that lingers in the mouth. Good potential here. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Let Folatières 1er Cru spent 12 months in barrel (228- and 600-liter) and at the time of tasting was in stainless steel. It has a stoic, almost aloof bouquet that does not want to come out to play. The palate is well balanced with pretty apricot and ginger-tinged citrus fruit, gaining weight toward the finish, which maintains the spicy edge all the way through. Excellent. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Let Folatières 1er Cru comes from a single plot of vines and is matured in 30% new oak. This sports a very subtle reduction, allowing the mineral-rich citric fruit to shine. Plenty of energy on the aromatics, and they translate across to the palate. Very well balanced with impressive nerve, this fans out wonderfully. Touches of spice linger in the mouth. Very classy. |

The palate is quite effervescent with crisp acidity and good tension. Citrus-fresh and vibrant towards the finish, this has a dash of spice lingering on the aftertaste. Superb.

Vinous (91-93)The 2018 Volnay Les Champans 1er Cru includes 50% whole cluster and has a much more floral bouquet than the Mitans, with wilted rose petal percolating through the red fruit. The well-balanced palate is tannic on the entry. The brisk, terse finish indicates that it is in for the long haul. I like the salinity here. A rather uncompromising but satisfying/challenging Volnay. |

Wine Advocate (89-90)The de Montille 2005 Volnay Mitans displays a lovely nose of ripe cherry and flowers with an iodine mineral-medicinal note that, together with fruit skin tartness, follows on a highly-concentrated, impressively-layered, finely-tannic palate, with raw meat, floral and mineral suggestions dominating over any sweetness of fruit. The tightly wound finish here is smoky, pungent and subtly bitter. In two or three years one would be able to glean a clearer notion of this wine’s ultimate personality. |

Vinous (91+)Good medium red. Captivating aromas of musky cherry, Oriental spices, incense and sexy oak nuances, plus a whiff of soft citrus fruits. Broad, rich and sweet, with good flesh for the vintage leavened by an edge of acidity that will require a year or two to harmonize with the wine. Finishes with building but integrated tannins and a slight youthful toughness. |

Wine Advocate (91-93)The 2010 Volnay Mitans was made with 100% whole clusters and that comes through loud and clear in the wine’s expressive aromatics. Layers of silky red berries follow as the aromas and flavors take shape. Rose petals, spices and licorice are layered into the sensual, totally beguiling finish. The Mitans needs time for the stems to fully harmonize with the rest of the elements, but there is no denying it is flat-out delicious. This is a great effort from Etienne de Montille. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035. |

Perhaps one of the earlier drinking Volnays. This is very well crafted. |

There is a wealth of great French wine outside the ‘Big 4’ (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and Rhone). The Languedoc Roussillon with it’s herby, robust Mediterranean reds, Provence with its pale, vinous roses, Loire with its flinty Sauvignons, crunchy Cabernet Francs, and endlessly fascinating Chenins, Jura with its old fashioned curiosities… the list goes on. Tradition and terroir are the veins running through them all, making French wines still the most emulated in the world.
