The wine
Village Puligny-Montrachet from one of the most historic family domaines in the Côte d’Or. It carries the hallmarks of the commune: citrus and white-flowered fruit, a fine mineral line and a long, saline finish, with the poise that has made Puligny’s whites so sought after.
Domaine de Montille dates back to the mid-18th century. Ninth-generation Etienne de Montille has built the estate to 37 hectares across 35 appellations, one of the most enviable holdings in the Côte d’Or. The vineyards have been farmed organically since 1995 and biodynamically since 2005, with Ecocert certification in 2012, and chef de cave Brian Sieve has been with the domaine for over a decade.

Domaine de Montille
View all Domaine de Montille winesIn the village of Volnay, on the Côte de Beaune, Domaine de Montille is one of Burgundy most revered names. Built over generations by the de Montille family, and now led by Étienne de Montille, the estate is famed for reds and whites of rare precision. Its holdings read like a roll-call of Burgundy finest sites.
The domaine farms biodynamically, with a purist devotion to terroir and restraint. Whole-bunch fermentation and measured oak give reds of structure and perfume, while the whites are taut and mineral. The style is classical, ageworthy, and utterly distinctive.
The range spans the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, from village wines to a peerless collection of premier and grand crus. Each bottling traces the character of its vineyard with quiet authority.
To pour a de Montille wine is to taste Burgundy at its most refined and honest. Elegant, structured, and profoundly ageworthy, these are wines for the serious cellar.
