This 1.62-hectare vine, planted on fairly clay soil at the foot of the hillside, offers us a generous, fruity, open wine capable of delivering its potential from its earliest youth. It can be tasted without waiting too long, but can nevertheless surprise by its aging capacity (about 15 years).

Bright pomegranate and black cherry aromas, with floral notes and a hint of spice. There is plenty of freshness and a slightly rustic, tannic edge on the palate, yet the wine is showing nicely and should age well over the mid-term. De Montille has 1.62ha in Beaune Sizies at the foot of the slope in fairly deep clay soils. Picking started early here, yet there is nothing tart or astringent about the wine. The grapes were vinified with one-third whole-cluster and aged in 15% new casks.
 

An appealingly layered nose combines notes of red and dark pinot fruit with those of violet, spice and a touch of warm earth. The delicious and slightly finer medium weight flavors possess good verve before terminating in a moderately complex, persistent and lightly stony finale.
