Domaine de Montille
Meursault, St Christophe, 2023
justerini & brooks tasting note
Hailing from two plots, the higher altitude Les Casses Tetes and the lower Les Petites Charrons, the 2023 St. Christophe smells like mountain herbs and sicilian lemons, with a lightly gripping palate and plenty of brisk citrus driven fruit on the palate. An athletic, tonic Meursault with lovely herbal inflections. Raised in a combination of demi-muid and barrique, of which just 20% was new oak.

90-92/100Neal Martin,Vinous
The 2023 Meursault St. Christophe has a lively bouquet with light sea spray scents and a touch of struck flint. The palate is well balanced with a slightly honeyed opening. A little lower in acidity compared to the Puligny, it's nonetheless harmonious with a judiciously spiced finish. This is one of de Montille's "dark horses."
