Domaine de Montille is regarded as one of the top producers in Burgundy and known for creating some of the purest expressions of Pinot Noir found in Burgundy today. Developed by Hubert de Montille, a prominent lawyer in Dijon, it began with 2.5 hectares of Volnay in 1951 - most of which was sold in bulk to negociants. Over the years he acquired further parcels in both Volnay and Pommard and today the Domaine owns approximately 17 hectares and is run by his son Etienne de Montille. The winemaking is traditional - partial destemming followed by a relatively long maceration period. The wines are aged in 20-30% new oak barriques and are bottled unfiltered. They are elegant, harmonious and benefit from 5+ years of bottle ageing to show their best.
