Bouchard Pere & Fils 1998 Premier Cru White (Montagny)
Delicate but open wine, showing the soft but subtle side of Montagny. Flavors of almonds combine with a zesty edge and just a touch of honey. Delicious to drink now.

Faiveley 2004 Domaine de la Croix Jacquelet Chardonnay (Montagny)
- $21
If a Faiveley Burgundy could ever be accused of having a slightly New World style, this would be the one. It shows classic Burgundian notes of toasted nuts and a lovely mealy texture, but also great generosity of fruit, ranging from pear and apple to honey and melon. Drink now–2010.

Faiveley 2005 Domaine de la Croix Jacquelet Chardonnay (Montagny)
- $24
Initially, this appears gentle and creamy; only later does acidity and green pear skin structure come in. Full and plump, with soft white fruits, the wood is prominent at this stage.

This is a ripe wine, structured with toast, ripe peach, spicy apricot and an attractive citrus juice character. The wine opens warmly in the mouth, but then finishes more crisply, lifted by its acidity.

Roche de Bellene 2010 Premier Cru Chardonnay (Montagny)
- Online Exclusive

A delicious shot of citrusy acidity makes this a wine of great freshness. At the same time, the wood-derived flavors add some richness and a spice note. Let this intense effort age for another couple of years.
