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.

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.

Henri de Villamont 2007 Premier Cru Chardonnay (Montagny)
- Online Exclusive

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.

Louis Latour 2006 La Grande Roche Premier Cru Chardonnay (Montagny)

With its mineral character, freshness and tight, taut structure, this is a promising wine, flavors of green fruits giving some richness but more crispness.

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.

Broad, ripe, full in the mouth, packed with soft white fruits and an open structure. There is some wood, the vanilla melding easily into the fruit. For drinking now.
