100 % Pinot Noir fra 1. cru marken "Champans", der har et højt kalkindhold og en god soleksponering. Champans regnes for en af de bedste 1. cru marker i Volnay og vinene herfra er indbegrebet af Volnay.
Super elegant og intens duft med elementer af koncentrerede røde bær og krydderier. Smagen er intens og veldefineret, elegant og ren - højenergisk vin med næsten uendelig eftersmag.
En vin med denne intensitet klarer næsten alle typer kødretter. Skal man yde vinen retfærdighed, bør man servere vildt - gerne fuglevildt - med svampe og/eller bærelementer.

De Montille er et usædvanligt gammelt familieforetagende beliggende i Volnay. Domainet har en bred vifte af vine fra mange forskellige fremragende marker hovedsagligt i Cote de Beaune. De senere år har man bredt sig til Cote de Nuits, men udelukkende når der er mulighed for at få fat i de absolutte top-marker.
Hubert de Montille, der lægger navn til domænet, har været advokat i Dijon hele livet. I 1951 arvede han 2,5 ha vinmark i Volnay, og efterfølgende har han tilkøbt en del jord forskellige steder i Bourgogne, så ejendommen nu er på 17 ha. Som advokat kunne Hubert de Montille ...

The 2018 Volnay Les Champans 1er Cru includes 50% whole cluster and has a much more floral bouquet than the Mitans, with wilted rose petal percolating through the red fruit. The well-balanced palate is tannic on the entry. The brisk, terse finish indicates that it is in for the long haul. I like the salinity here. A rather uncompromising but satisfying/challenging Volnay.

The 2018 Volnay 1er Cru Les Champans is muscular and more introverted than the series of Beaune premiers crus that proceeded it, unwinding with a deep-pitched bouquet of cassis, smoked meats and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, firm and muscular, the raw materials are promising, but the wine was a little inscrutable.

The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Champans displays notions of red cherries, potpourri, dried herbs and rich soil tones. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, fine-boned and tensile, and while it's somewhat austere in profile its tannins are nicely integrated. It will likely flesh out with further élevage and time in bottle.

The 2017 Volnay Les Champans 1er Cru matures with 50% whole clusters and 30% new oak. It has a very comely bouquet with open-knit red cherries, raspberry and wild strawberry aromas tinged with violet. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, good acidity, fine grip and backbone. The finish feels very long. This has the sense of authority you look for in this vineyard. Excellent.

A ripe, spicy and elegant nose presents notes of plum, cassis and warm earth. There is both good volume along with fine detail to the delicious and nicely concentrated medium-bodied flavors that also exude a fine bead of minerality before culminating in a dusty, cool and refined finale. Though there is some youthful austerity present there is no dryness and thus the overall sense of balance is more complete.
