Tasting notes
The 2013 Monthélie Villages has a carefree and floral bouquet: wilted rose petals infusing the lucid red cherry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and fine structure. This is easy-drinking in style, but don't ignore the structure and tension here. It is less opulent than the 2013 Auxey-Duresses and yet just as nuanced.

A bit less expressive than the Bourgogne Rouge on the nose. Some sweatiness on the nose and a lack of freshness. Dense and a bit unfriendly. Bottle just opened – perhaps needs more time? (JR)
