• Allen Meadows: This is notably more sauvage in character with abundant spice and floral elements add a touch of elegance to the otherwise frank and rustic aromas of mostly dark berry fruit. There is both excellent volume and richness to the muscular and powerful big-bodied flavors that possess excellent depth and length.

Producer Information

The Domaine de Montille was established in Volnay in the middle of the XVIII century. Today it farms 20 hectares of vines, essentially Premier and Grand Crus, mainly in the Côte de Beaune but also in the Côte de Nuits. The domaine produces about 8,000 cases covering 20 appellations. During the XX century, Hubert de Montille wrote the finest pages of the domaine’s history. The lawyer and his children have always strived to return their domaine, which had declined in the past, to the stature it once enjoyed. Furthermore, it is thanks to Hubert that during the 1960’s the domaine became renowned around the world.
