NOTES
De Montille’s Taillepieds is one of the true “flagships” of the domaine, and is a model of aromatic purity and precision. The nose is consistently floral and spicy with earthy elements, while the palate is structured with a tight, dense and tannic profile. Chewy in its youth, but purity and minerality are revealed with time. A serious and long-lived wine in the De Montille lineup.
