Note di degustazione
The de Montille 2005 Volnay Mitans displays a lovely nose of ripe cherry and flowers with an iodine mineral-medicinal note that, together with fruit skin tartness, follows on a highly-concentrated, impressively-layered, finely-tannic palate, with raw meat, floral and mineral suggestions dominating over any sweetness of fruit. The tightly wound finish here is smoky, pungent and subtly bitter. In two or three years one would be able to glean a clearer notion of this wine’s ultimate personality.

Medium red. Cherry, licorice, minerals, herbs and spices on the slightly reduced nose. Fairly full in the mouth but totally closed and revealing little sweetness. There's a mineral pungency here and the tannins are distinctly dusty. Very tough to taste today. I'll wait to see it in the bottle.

Volnay’s Domaine de Montille is one of the most historic in the Côte d’Or. Founded in 1730, the property remains family-owned and run, with Etienne de Montille – the ninth generation – at the helm today.
