"Key lime pie, shortcrust pastry and a creamy, leesy texture masking a core of bright acidity. Will sharpen beautifully with time."
Ksenia Pashkova, Club Merchandiser
2024 was a genuinely demanding year in the Côte de Beaune. Persistent rain and humidity from spring through harvest slashed yields and put relentless pressure on vineyard work, with timing and selection absolutely critical. At de Montille, decisions were calm, precise and unapologetically classical. Picking was about accuracy rather than courage, extraction was handled with restraint, and élevage kept firmly in service of site expression.
The results are quietly impressive across both colours. These are not showy wines, but deeply articulate ones: transparent, savoury, and built to age. In a vintage where excess was an easy trap, de Montille has delivered wines that speak clearly of place, confirming once again why this remains one of the Côte de Beaune’s most serious and intellectually satisfying domaines, even when conditions are at their most uncooperative.
What the critics say:
"Pale lemon in colour. Strict and fresh on the nose. It takes time to tease out the fruit. Superb concentration with a mix of fresh citrus, and ideal acidity to match the de Montille style. *4/5 stars*"
"This has always been a distinctive wine; in 2024, winemaker Brian Sieve got it exactly right, with prominent aromas of ripe apple, Mirabelle plum and acacia flowers. The texture is dense and rich, but ‘not overly opulent’, according to Sieve. The vineyard can tend towards a slightly heavy style, but this is not the case here; the grapes are coming only from the upper level of Porusots near the Clos de Bouchères, where the limestone bedrock is not as heavy. Let this open up for five or six years before opening."
