Domaine de Montille Les Pezerolles 1er Pommard 2020
91-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.36 ha holding; 50% whole clusters). This too is intensely floral in character with nuances of rose petal, violet and lavender to the subtle spicy red berry fruit scents. There is both excellent precision and verve to the beautifully textured medium weight flavors that terminate in a clean and sleek if mildly austere finale. This isn't unduly structured but is a wine that will still require at least 5-ish years of forbearance. Drink: 2028+. (Jun 2022)”
94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "From a lieu-dit on the border with Beaune, this is a silky, elegant wine with none of the slightly rustic edge one associates with Pommard. The fruit is high-toned red berry fruit with a floral edge, and the finesse and velvety texture on the palate are a joy. Winemaker Brian Sieve notes that the profile of the 2018s and 2020s have some similarities, but acidity in 2020s is more evident, accented by an early picking date. Drinking Window: 2025-2060. (Nov 2021)”
94 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Etienne long ago told me that despite this being not only a Pommard but also a Pommard on the Beaune side of the village, it always behaves more like a Volnay. Here is evidence yet again. There are plentiful tannins but they are sleekly rounded, and the acidity is fresh but integrated. Wild blackberries and açai meet spice drawer meet tea leaves on the drawn-out, robust finish. Two-thirds whole cluster was used here, and the average vine age is about 50. 2022-36. (2022)”
91-93 points Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy): "50% whole cluster, largely from Hubert’s original Clos. Just above 13%. Heady deep purple, peppery on the nose, blended in with a deep coulis de framboise style fruit. Powerful and ripe fruit once again, with physiological elements which are only just ripe. Several of the de Montille reds are showing the paradox of the vintage, one which I think will resolve itself positively. (Oct 2021)”
