Michel Gahier
Les Follasses Arbois Chardonnay 2011
Gooood jura chard. No ox, minerality is there. Learning Montigny is best chard country in jura. — 11 years ago

A favorite of Sabrina's, found while tasting on a day out in the city. This was the first wine she's tasted different vintages on. The difference for the Montigny was stark. — 7 years ago

Suenen
La Grande Vigne Extra Brut Montigny-Sur-Vesle Pinot Meunier 2013
Really good. Slightly oxidative, bruised red apple. PM lovers please apply. Masculine, serious but not fussy, celery root. Very drinkable. — 4 years ago
Jacques Puffeney
Cuvée du Jubilé Arbois Poulsard Trousseau 2012
Elegant. It is a shame that Jacques is hanging up his shoes, and (currently) has no apparent heir to continue his superb work. The once king of Montigny-les-Asures can coax a sublime wine out of Trousseau (Bastardo) with lovely ripe red cherry, earthy dustiness, white pepper, cranberries and red currants. Light and elegant, with very fine grainy tannin and plenty of acid. This destined to be a sleeper, like an elegant Ruchottes-Chambertin. It's built around its vibrancy, needs a few years to resolve (the 2010 I enjoyed recently is tantamount to this). — 10 years ago
Jeroen Koenen
Improved significantly since last bottle I had. — 7 months ago
