The 2021 Domaine Cottenceau Montagny Premier Cru “Montcuchot” is an elegant and finely balanced Chardonnay from the Côte Chalonnaise, showcasing the potential of Montagny’s Premier Cru vineyards. Domaine Cottenceau, a rising star in the region, is known for their focus on sustainable practices and crafting wines that express the unique character of their terroirs. The “Montcuchot” vineyard, with its south-facing slopes and limestone-rich soils, produces wines of depth, vibrancy, and minerality.

In the glass, the wine reveals a luminous pale gold hue. The nose is fresh and inviting, with aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and white peach, accented by subtle floral notes and a hint of toasted almond. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and well-structured, with a lively acidity that enhances the crisp fruit flavors. A fine mineral backbone adds complexity, leading to a clean, refreshing finish with lingering notes of citrus and wet stone.

The 2021 vintage, shaped by cooler conditions and lower yields, lends this wine remarkable precision and freshness. It pairs beautifully with dishes such as seared scallops, grilled fish, or roasted chicken, as well as creamy vegetable-based pastas. While approachable now for its vibrant fruit and elegant structure, this Montagny Premier Cru has the potential to age gracefully over the next 3–5 years, developing greater complexity and nuance. Domaine Cottenceau’s “Montcuchot” is a superb example of the finesse and charm that Montagny’s Premier Cru wines can offer.

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
