Note di degustazione
The 2009 Beaune Les Sizies presents a darker tonality of red fruit. It too, is a juicy, plump wine to drink over the next few years. The Sizies has 33% whole clusters. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017. Etienne de Montille began harvesting on September 5 in 2009 in order to maintain as much freshness as possible. Natural alcohols came in between 12.7% and 13.2% slightly higher than the range de Montille prefers. My sense is that some of the entry-level 2009s could have used a touch more density, but the higher end wines are quite successful across the board. The 2009s were aged on their lees and were not racked until they were prepared for bottling, which began in September 2010, the first time de Montille had bottled 1er Crus before the following harvest. I tasted most of the 2009s from tank, where they were settling before bottling. De Montille did not plan to fine or filter any of the wines in tank.

Light, pretty and authentic-smelling. Lots of open fruit with an attractive but not funky earthiness. Not too sweet! (JR)
(no vendange entier; no new oak) Good medium red. Deeper pitched but less expressive on the nose than the Perrieres, offering black cherry and licorice aromas. Supple and juicy but a wine of only moderate intensity. Finishes slightly tart, with dryish tannins. From vines between 10 and 15 years of age.

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.
