    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    First made in the 2016 vintage, the Meursault "Saint-Christophe" is a blend of three climates "Les Casse-Têtes", "Les Petits Charrons" and "Les Narvaux du Dessous", three terroirs located in the middle of the hillside of Meursault also called "Montagne Saint-Christophe". The result is balanced and complex. A wine with Meursault traits but without being over-bearing. Well-composed this is structured, nervy, mineral and stony but with a softening buttery quality.

    Neal Martin,

    The 2018 Meursault "St. Christophe" is a blend of three vineyards and sees slightly less new oak that other cuvées from de Montille. There is just a slight reduction on the nose, which develops light menthol notes with aeration. The palate is easygoing, perhaps a bit commercial in style, but there is nothing wrong with that. Finishes pleasantly peachy. Drink over the next five or six years.
