Montagny

Wine Characteristics

Montagny produces white wines only. To the eye, these wines present the classic features of a burgundian Chardonnay: limpid, pale gold colour with green highlights when young, darker gold colour with age. Their aromas are acacia, mayflower, honeysuckle, bramble flowers, and sometimes violet and bracken. Of the livelier scents, lemon-balm and gun-flint may be added.
Hazelnut, white peach and ripe pear would not be surprising, either. In the mouth, the wine is always fresh, young at heart, frisky, alluring, and rich in spicy back-flavours. Refinement and delicacy are harmoniously matched to a durably well-built structure.
 

Wine Steward’s Tip

Highly-bred, subtle and rich in delicate nuances, Montagny can be properly matched only with foods of comparable balance and aromatic intensity, for example, veal in white sauce suits it very well. As far as seafood is concerned, steamed or poached crustaceans, noble fish (plain fried, grilled, or, better still, steamed) are well-suited. Paella, made with meat and/or fish, also goes well with this wine since the smoothtasting dish with its diversity of aromas will be lit up by Montagny’s allure and aromatic richness. The same goes for cooked seafood. As for cheeses, it brings out the best in goat cheeses, Beaufort, Comté, Emmental and Saint-Paulin.
Serving temperature: 10 to 12°C.
 

Situation


At the southern end of the Côte Chalonnaise, four villages (Buxy, Montagnylès-
Buxy, Jully-lès-Buxy and Saint-Vallerin), have been banded together as a single Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée since 1936. Hereabouts, as in the Côte de Nuits or at Chassagne-Montrachet, wine-growing and stone-quarrying amicably share the landscape. Buxy, with its 12th century fortifications, is an important heritage site and retains its independent spirit. The wine, grown only from Chardonnay grapes, breathes freshness and clarity. The monks of Cluny preferred it to any other.
 

Terroirs

Facing East and South-East these hillsides of Bajocien limestone are planted with vines at altitudes of 250-400 metres. Marls and marly limestones of the Jurassic lias and older trias (200 million years BC approx.) make an ideal terroir.
The gravelly lower Triassic which surfaces at Buxy is in contact here with the Kimmeridgian limestone which dominates in the geology of Chablis.

Domaine Berthenet - Montagny

Domaine Berthenet: Wine producer and harvester in Montagny in Burgundy

Jean Pierre Berthenet has successfully taken over and developed this estate of more than 20 hectares of vines owned in Montagny. He is now passing the torch to his son François.

Serious and reliable producer who develops a diversified and very good range of Montagny and Montagny Premiers Crus, which is regularly awarded (see the Hachette guide). Don't hesitate to discover their other appellations from the Côte Chalonnaise, especially in red with a very good quality Givry.  Also of note is a novelty that will interest lovers of purity: a Bourgogne Chardonnay without added sulphites (sulphur).

The Montagny and Montagny 1er cru wines of Domaine Berthenet are fine and concentrated, very representative of the great white wines of this beautiful appellation in the south of Burgundy.

In 2020, Domaine Berthenet was named winemaker of the year by the Hachette guide, a reference in France for wine buying guides.
