2019 Maison Montilles "Les Coeres" Montagny Premier Cru

Burgundy, France

In 2003, the sister-and-brother team of Alix and Étienne de Montille created the micro-négociant DEux Montilles. Their goal is to produce predominantly white wines from reliable, top-notch growers in the Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise to balance the prestigious, mostly red, vineyard holdings of Domaine de Montille. Touches of matchstick character and cool lemon-lime nuances are present on the mostly white orchard fruit aromas. The moderately dense middle weight flavors are also quite vibrant while exuding evident minerality on the youthfully austere and slightly tightly wound finale.

90 points, Antonio Galloni's Vinous. "The 2019 Montagne Les Coères has a pretty, white peach and nectarine bouquet that unfurls nicely in the glass. The palate displays light tropical notes on the entry, then passion fruit and pineapple, while countervailing acidity keeps it tight on the finish. Delicious. "
