"Iron-rich and deeply savoury, with bloody, meaty notes, forest floor and restrained dark fruit. Serious, structured and unmistakably Rugiens."
Ksenia Pashkova, Club Merchandiser

2024 was a genuinely demanding year in the Côte de Beaune. Persistent rain and humidity from spring through harvest slashed yields and put relentless pressure on vineyard work, with timing and selection absolutely critical. At de Montille, decisions were calm, precise and unapologetically classical. Picking was about accuracy rather than courage, extraction was handled with restraint, and élevage kept firmly in service of site expression.

The results are quietly impressive across both colours. These are not showy wines, but deeply articulate ones: transparent, savoury, and built to age. In a vintage where excess was an easy trap, de Montille has delivered wines that speak clearly of place, confirming once again why this remains one of the Côte de Beaune’s most serious and intellectually satisfying domaines, even when conditions are at their most uncooperative.

What the critics say:

90-93/100Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

"Two thirds whole bunch vinification. No deeper in colour than the others, a little more concentrated in red fruit, with fewer floral notes, by comparison to the previous reds. Tighter all round, not explosive. A few tannins at the back. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Oct 2025."

91-93/100Neal Martin, Vinous

"The 2024 Pommard Les Rugiens-Bas 1er Cru has 50% whole cluster fruit. It has a more airy bouquet with vivid red berry fruit, rooibos and light scents of thyme and rosemary in the background. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, a little fleshier and more smooth than the Pézerolles with a sensual finish. A quite delectable Pommard. "
