Montagny 1er Cru Domaine Feuillat-Juillot 2022

Description

Françoise Feuillat-Juillot is the daughter of the highly regarded Mercurey producer, Michel Juillot. She grew up amongst the vines and barrels of her family domaine, before studying in Paris and completing a degree in oenology at Dijon Universit

She now has 14 hectares of wonderfully sited, mainly old vines, spread amongst 13 different premier crus in the viticultural amphitheatre that is Montagny. She practices a very strict and meticulous form of sustainable viticulture, works the soils mechanically and all grapes are picked by hand.

Beautifully concentrated and minerally still; the 1er Cru Les Grappes d’Or is a blend of five different premier crus on Marne calcaires, from vines dating back to 1950 and is fermented and matured 30% in 500 litre barrels, 70% in stainless steel.

Classic in style and delivering, an increasingly rare commodity, exceptional value white Burgundy. Rich and nutty with a lusch, silky texture supported by fresh citrusy fruit and a fresh crisp finish. Delicious!,
