2010 Volnay 1er Cru Les Taillepieds, Domaine de Montille
One of the most revered vineyards of Volnay, a steep slope where one may run the risk of accidently pruning one’s feet (taille-pieds). From 25 year old vines which are 100% whole cluster fermented, this refined and elegant example has a haunting perfume with subtle hints of pepper and spice. “Taille Pieds is consistently the finest of the five Volnay cuvées at Domaine de Monthille” – Jasper Morris MW.
