Product Description:
The de Montille approach aims at producing hand-crafted, classical and authentic Burgundy that expresses the subtle but fabulous nuances in personality of their different terroirs.The Domaine moved to organic farming in 1995 and more recently to bio-dynamic farming. Total respect of the raw material from grapes to wine is key, with every effort made to produce the ripest, most balanced and healthiest fruit. Winemaking then consists of understanding the characteristics of the vintage and the identity of the various terroirs and working accordingly with minimal intervention. Technology is only valued if it contributes to bringing out the authentic expression of the wines. A moderate percentage of new oak is used (about 20 to 30%). The wines are given long aging, late malolactic fermentation and are often bottled without filtration or fining. These wines are made with an artisanal approach and could not be more different than those that are mass produced.
