{"product_id":"domaine-de-montille-volnay-1er-cru-les-mitans-library-1999","title":"Domaine de Montille, Volnay 1er Cru Les Mitans (library), 1999","description":"A 1999 Volnay premier cru from the hinge years at Domaine de Montille, when the address we love more than any other in Burgundy was passing from father to son. Etienne de Montille had taken charge of winemaking in 1995, co-managing with his father Hubert, the lawyer-vigneron who ran the domaine while practising law in Dijon for almost 50 years. Etienne was also still working in investment banking and didn't go full time at the domaine until 2001. Hubert's wines were classic and structured, built to age. Etienne went on to push the house toward the purity we call new-old Burgundy, with far fewer punch-downs and a lighter hand with new oak, so a 1999 sits right at the crossroads. It was also grown organically: Etienne converted the estate in 1995, a decade before the move to biodynamics. Mitans takes its name from the word for \"middle.\" The domaine's 0.72-hectare parcel sits mid-slope facing east, with limestone scree at the top, bedrock breaking the surface in the middle and deeper clay lower down, a mix the domaine credits with making the wine floral, suave and spicy all at once.","brand":"Polaner [POL]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50897276665913,"sku":"NYC-W-POL-`FDM410`-102126-85","price":374.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/IMG-5789.jpg?v=1793745894","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/domaine-de-montille-volnay-1er-cru-les-mitans-library-1999","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
