"A delightful balance between freshness and acidity, while remaining complex and wonderfully supple!"
“With its aromas of black fruit, spices, smoke, and plum, the 2021 Monthélie 1er Cru Les Duresses is medium-bodied to full-bodied, rich and lively, with a rather powerful and deep profile. Like its commune-level counterpart, this is a high-quality wine that will, however, require a bit of patience. ” (Wine Advocate 2023)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots spanning 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate viticultural heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who previously managed Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year; the majority of production comes from purchased grapes for the great reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites, other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both white and red wines in recent vintages.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 89-91/100
About the wine:
The 2021 Monthélie Les Duresses 1er Cru comes from a 1.8-hectare south-facing hillside, one of the last to be harvested. On the nose, aromas of wild strawberry and cranberry with a hint of dried rose petals. The palate is supple and fresh, with lovely acidity. This wine has much more complexity and nuance than the Village, with a palpable minerality on the finish. Well worth discovering.
