"Sweeter, crunchier fruit on entry, with added depth and richness. Long, meaty and polished, with impressive persistence."
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.
Domaine de Montille is one of Tim Atkin's Top 10 Côte de Beaune Red Wine Producers. The 97 points for the Christiane is Christy Canterbury's (joint) 2nd highest rated red of the vintage.
What the critics say:
"No deeper in colour, possibly a touch lighter. 100% whole bunch vinification. Very stylish indeed on the nose, so lifted it is leaping out of the glass. Enjoy the very long finish, flamboyantly weightless, with fresh alpine strawberries, indeed the whole panoply of magical fruit which this vineyard can supply, when in the right hands. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Oct 2025."
"This is produced from the section of the vineyards that seems to extend into La Tâche (although it is not part of La Tâche). It is indeed a different wine, with fruit aromas that are more black than red – here they are on blackberry, bramble and spice, where the ‘classic’ is more on cherry and pomegranate. The texture is dense and structured but not forbidding. As with the classic bottling, this is a wine that will repay cellaring for nearly as long as you can wait."
"A regal, grandiose Malconsorts Christiane, this is hands down one of my wines of the vintage. It’s almost outrageously beautiful in its intricate array of aromas: Marasca cherries, mulberry coulis, underbrush and chimney smoke. Finely-grained tannins glide along the palate, amicably meshing with the graciously integrated acidity. The wine radiates finesse. This special cuvée comes from the northern outcrop of the climat, a 0.49 ha enclave bordered by La Tâche."
