Sold individually
Drink or Keep
Straddling three communes, the "Les Coeres" climat is the most important of the Premier Crus. It enjoys an unobstructed southern exposure on a mid-slope. This Montagny 1er cru is distinguished by its fresh citrus aromas and notes of white flowers. It is highly suitable for ageing, and with time will express notes of honey and candied quince, with secondary aromas of hazelnut, almond and rosehip.

The power and richness of this wine give it great length. As it ages, it develops honeyed, candied quince aromas. It will take a good five years for secondary aromas of hazelnut, almond, rosehip and white flowers to begin to express themselves.
