Top Riesling for a Song. White peaches, limes, rangpur limes, touch cardamom, minerality and salinity en masse. This is the best value of German GG Riesling by a mile - Lyle is right! - In fact anybody who passes up on this should have regrets. — 5 years ago

Dry with pronounces tannins. Two hours after decanting, it emergences much smoother and rather nice to drink now. Not quite the standard Fontodi CC, but a very enjoyable wine on its own. — 5 years ago

Montagny 1er Cru “Les Terroirs” — Famille Masse (Fabrice Masse), 2024, Burgundy, France 🇫🇷

Overview
A refined Premier Cru Chardonnay from Montagny in the Côte Chalonnaise. Crafted in a clean, restrained Burgundian style, focused on precision, freshness, and terroir expression rather than oak weight.

Aromas & Flavors
Green apple, lemon zest, pear skin, white peach, crushed limestone, subtle almond and faint white blossom notes.

Mouthfeel
Light to medium body, dry, crisp and linear. Bright acidity keeps everything lifted and sharp. Clean finish with minimal oak influence and no buttery heaviness.

Food Pairings
Oysters, shrimp cocktail, ceviche, grilled white fish, scallops, goat cheese crostini, light seafood tapas.

Verdict
Elegant, delicate, and beautifully composed. A Chardonnay that prioritizes clarity and minerality over richness. Impressive restraint, classic, polished, and very much in the “clean Burgundy” lane.

Did You Know?
Montagny is the southernmost village of the Côte Chalonnaise dedicated exclusively to white wines. Premier Cru sites often deliver excellent value compared to Côte de Beaune counterparts.

🍷 Personal Pick
This is my kind of Chardonnay, crisp, mineral, and oak-disciplined (just a kiss of it). An easy opener that stays precise and delicious from first sip to last.

暑い年を感じさせない丸くて柔らかな果実。
その後に、小梅的な旨味のある酸がジワジワ。

Sour cherries en masse, apricot kernels and red forest berries. Some VA. I get the sense of a warm growing season, but the wine is still fresh and medium bodied. — 5 years ago

Interesting Orange wine. Strong tannins, dark and musty, better when paired with a fatty meal to help cut through the acidity. — a year ago

Un vin surprenant, se boit bien, rien ne cloche, du fruit en masse, les tannins se sont calmés un peu depuis quelques années, très typé Gevrey et très bien surtout au prix payé à l’époque. 90-91

Surprisingly good wine for the price paid at the time especially, nice fruit, the tannins are now silkier, good balance, still Gevrey like in character. — 5 years ago

Lots of delicious and expressive red fruit, drinks easy but with more and more depth and complexity as it ages slowly. Even better on day 2. 90-91

Du fruit rouge en masse, très Pinot et un profil parfumé et expressif mais ça se boit tellement bien, encore meilleur jour 2. — 5 years ago

Really nice. Nose hits right out of the gate. Loads of savory, gravelly minerality, a balsamic note, dried sour cherry underneath. Serious in the mouth. No fruity frivolity here. More on the austere side, with loads of tangy, dark savory notes, good acids, still a bit of puckery tannin. Too demanding to sip on its own but dynamite with a chicken dish that featured lots of herbs and was braised with tons of punchy cherry tomatoes. — 5 years ago
