De Montille owns a magnificent 1.26-hectare parcel in Beaune Grèves just south of Bouchard's Baby Jesus planted in iron and clay soils over sandy limestone. The vines delivered a complex compelling wine in 2022: a ripe plummy fruit with a savoury gamey edge and a firm saline undercurrent. Half of the grapes were fermented as whole clusters with a combination of punching down and pumping over. The structure is now supple and silky yet enough tannin suggests that this will age well.

40% whole bunch not room enough in the vat for more! Dense purple the nose slightly more reticent as the serious side of Grèves impinges. A lovely grain to the tannins a robust heart to the wine. Slightly darker fruit emerges at the back all good for the long term.By Jasper Morris
Burghound: 91-94 Points
This is aromatically more complex but also more reserved with its nose of warm earth poached plum violet and softly sauvage nuances. There is good power and punch if only average density to the muscular and lightly stony medium weight flavors that display excellent length on the more youthfully austere finale. Excellent development potential here. (Drink starting 2032) By Allen Meadows
