Domaine de Montille Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru 2022 75cl
Description
Perched on the highest slopes of the legendary Montrachet hill, Chevalier-Montrachet is universally recognised as one of the ultimate expressions of Chardonnay on earth. Domaine de Montille’s microscopic 0.23-hectare parcel yields a Grand Cru of extraordinary tension, razor-sharp precision, and shimmering mineral elegance.
The 2022 vintage highlights the true nobility of this site. In the glass, it reveals a crystalline pale-gold hue with bright greenish tints. The nose opens with an ethereal bouquet of white jasmine, lime blossom, crushed limestone, and vine peach, gently backed by fine toasted oak and fresh butter notes. On the palate, the wine balances volume and intensity with vibrant, laser-like acidity. A deeply complex, satiny texture carries through to an extraordinarily long finish defined by smoky chalkiness and citrus zest.
Crafted with strict organic and biodynamic principles, minimal intervention, and minimal new oak to protect site purity, the 2022 Chevalier-Montrachet is a collector-grade white Burgundy built for decades in the cellar.
