Made from new domaine plots, in Les Plantes and Les Crays. The village of Monthelie situated between Meursault and Volnay, sharing many of their distinctive characteristics.

Superb vitality and balance. It promises to reward cellaring too. Tremendously concentrated and compact, with extreme drive and massive persistence, it positively […]
