Product Description
VM95 "Bright medium red. Very ripe aromas of black raspberry, smoky minerality and dried flowers. Plush, highly concentrated, outsized wine, combining grand cru volume with a surprisingly airy texture. Finishes with wonderfully suave tannins that saturate the entire palate and give shape to the wine's fruit. Really outstanding soil-driven depth here." ST for VM Nov 2014
Jeannie Cho Lee, MW writes, "Gorgeous texture with plush, velvety tannins and focused flavours. A stunning Malconsorts that has vibrant intensity." JCL for DR Dec 2014
Neal Martin for RobertParker.com writes, "I was interested to learn that when Hubert de Montille inherited his father’s vines in 1947, it consisted of just three hectares. During the 1990s he gradually handed over the running to his son Etienne, who was working in the financial sector and his daughter Alix, married to Jean-Marc Roulot. It was during Etienne’s tenure at Credit Foncier that he was charged with running Chateau de Puligny-Montrachet. The biggest development in recent years is the acquisition of the mouth-watering Thomas-Moillard holdings in 2005 in conjunction with Domaine Dujac and outside investors. If I am to be honest, the rapid changes have made it difficult to keep up with the changes, not that anyone is protesting against improvements. I guess it is just a case of keeping pace with Etienne!" Published: Dec 29, 2013
