De Montille Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2019

94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): “Just over one hectare in Chardonnay, purchased in 2004, on south-facing slopes in Corton Pougets. This is truly a regal style of wine, from lightly crushed fruit run into cask with most of its lees for fermentation, aged a year before racking and then a further four to six months maturation. This is truly grand cru in style – rich and lush, with still-smoky, spicy ripe fruit on the nose, lovely density and a massive finish. Drinking Window: 2024-2039. (Oct 2020)”

91-94 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): “(from Pougets). Elegant, cool and ripe aromas are comprised by notes of green fruit, apple, acacia and lemongrass. The racy mineral-driven flavors are also sleek and beautifully delineated on the youthfully austere finale that is sneaky long. This tautly muscular effort isn’t especially dense, but it is well-balanced and offers very good development potential. Drink: 2029+. (Jun 2021)”
