The appellation of Montagny lies approximately 30 kilometres south of Beaune in the rolling folds and hills of the southern part of the Côte Chalonnaise. Montagny is a 100% white wine appellation originating solely from Chardonnay grapes and giving a fresh white wine that is an uncomplicated representation of its parent grape variety. The high quality of the vines is a direct consequence of their limestone bedrock and admirably oriented slopes. The vineyard of "La Grande Roche" is quite high up on the hillsides, catching plenty of sunshine which aids the great concentration of flavours in the grapes.
Louis Latour Description
Our Montagny 1er Cru "La Grande Roche" 2022 has a bright, pale yellow color. From its nose emanate perfumes of yellow peach, fresh hazelnut and almond paste. Its mouth, ample and very round, reveals aromas of almond paste and honey. A lot of freshness on the finish.
James Suckling: 93 Points
This combines the creamy-oily side of white Burgundy with succulent candied pineapple and lychee fruit plus touches of almonds and smoke. The interplay of the ripeness and vitality is delightful and impressive. Long, quite compact finish with excellent mineral freshness. Drink or hold.
