Montille 2020 Volnay Taillepieds
2020 Domaine de Montille, Volnay, 1er Cru Les Taillepieds
Decanter
95 Points
This has a ripe plummy fruit, with lots of depth from the notes of spice and smoke, and a firm core, yet absolutely no rough edges at all, just a polished elegance that lingers interminably on the palate. The de Montille family is from Volnay and this holding is among the central, historic parcels of the domaine. There are two parcels: the upper part, which is partly destemmed, and the lower section with more limestone gravel in the soil, where the oldest vines are found. This latter fruit is always fermented as 100% whole-cluster. Drinking Window: 2025 - 2060. harles Curtis 09 Nov 2021
