About this product


There's a lot of pleasure to be had with the wines of Monthelie. This sleepy town adjoining Meursault and Volnay produces whites and reds of quality at reasonable prices. Berthelemot's Monthelie Blanc is a blend of two parcels: the 1er Cru Les Riottes and Champ Rond. They only have 0.11 hectares in each vineyard so a blend is a necessity, even though one of the parcels is Premier Cru.

Nose of French patisserie with lemon curd. The palate is full of citric notes, is fresh with excellent acid and nice grip. There are some flowers and minerals. This wine looks like a theoretical blend of Puligny-Montrachet and Chablis - it is racy and fresh with an appealing depth of flavour.
