Description
The vineyards included in the appellation Montagny are spread throughout a number of villages in the Cte Chalonnaise, namely Montagny, Buxy, St.-Vallerin and Jully-les-Buxy. The high quality of the vines being a direct consequence of their limestone bedrock and admirably oriented slopes. The vineyard of La Grande Roche is quite high up on the hillsides, catching plenty of sunshine which aids the great concentration of flavours in the grapes. The wine is floral and crisp with flavours of nuts and dried fruit.
Very pale yellow in colour, the Montagny 1er Cru reveals delicious floral aromas of honeysuckle. Full in the mouth with notes of almond, apricot and pepper, the finish is fresh with a hint of menthol
