Region
Monthélie
Just to the south of Volnay, Monthelie is a relatively unknown Burgundian village and as such can represent excellent value. A slightly subdued version of its better-known neighbour, but still highly perfumed and elegant. These wines are generally best drunk fairly young. A little Chardonnay is planted in the vineyards adjoining Meursault.
