Garaudet, Florent Monthelie Vieilles Vignes
Vintage: | 2022 |
---|---|
Description: | Monthélie is situated between Volnay and Meursault fairly nestled into the curve of the hillside with most of the vineyards facing south or southeast. While you can find some Monthélie Blanc out there, Pinot is king in this appellation accounting for about 85% of the hectares under vines. Due to its neighbors you tend to get a Volnay-like elegance with a bit more power behind them. This old vine Monthélie comes from 3 plots that amount to about 1 hectare. Aged for 12 months in 30% new oak. There is serious depth here with fruit and earth. A perfect Burgundy for when the temperatures finally cool down. Florent is a 5th generation Monthélie vigneron who after completing viticulture school in Beaune decided to travel to the Languedoc and Pomerol to learn about wine outside of Burgundy.
