Description
With 25% fermented and raised in oak, Mont de Milieu shows its “right bank” character, with a riper nose of peach and subtle white flowers. The palate continues in a similar vein, initially juicy and succulent with a sunny edge, before an iodine coolness provides a twist of freshness to the finish. Drink now to 2025.

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
