MONTAGNY 1ER CRU
Clos du Vieux Château
DECANTER : “Based in Buxy, Laurent Cognard makes this impressive Premier Cru from a real clos with four walls on a stony site. Expansively wooded, but with the concentration, intensity and fruit weight to soak it up, this is ripe, creamy and intense, with wax and lanolin flavours and more than enaough acidity and salinity to lift and freshmen the finish.
