Montille 2022 Volnay Taillepieds
97 points La Revue du Vin de France
"Les Taillepieds is a pedigree wine of magnificent olfactory elegance. Fine, restrained, this lofty wine expresses the great finesse of this appellation through a silky touch. Its fine, tight tannic structure indicates that it is destined for long ageing, a wine of great nobility of aroma and body. (2025)"
94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter)
"This iconic wine of the de Montille portfolio has an exquisitely complex aroma of silky mulberry fruit with suggestions of earth, smoke, and a savoury, gamey edge. The feel is tannic and dense, with impressive length and the energy to balance the rich flavours and textures. The grapes come from the family's two parcels that total more than 1.5 hectares. In 2022, all the grapes were fermented as whole clusters with a firm extraction and ageing in a cask (30% new). Drinking Window: 2025-2050. (5/30/23)"
