Domaine Feuillat‑Juillot Montagny ‘Les Crêts’ 2022 from the stony, chalky slopes of Montagny is a more mineral, detailed step up from the estate’s basic cuvées, offering a savoury, finely etched white Burgundy with real tension and drive. This Montagny Les Crêts 2022 comes off a tiny one‑hectare parcel of 28‑year‑old Chardonnay, fermented in thermo‑regulated vats then aged eight months on lees to build texture while keeping the style clean and incisive.

On the nose you’ll find a mineral, chalky profile with oyster shell, white flowers and a touch of spice and subtle tropical hints sitting over citrus and stone fruit. The palate is round and smooth yet essentially floral, with lively acidity and a fresh lick of minerality that runs through the finish, giving Domaine Feuillat‑Juillot Montagny Les Crêts 2022 an expressive, zesty feel that still carries good mid‑palate weight. It’s a clean, pure, early‑drinking Montagny that shows off the appellation’s bright, frisky style with a bit of extra detail and spice.

Domaine Feuillat‑Juillot Montagny ‘Les Crêts’ 2022 is delicious on its own but shines with shellfish, grilled plaice or sole and simply prepared fish, where its chalky, saline freshness mirrors the sea on the plate. It also works beautifully with goat’s cheese, light poultry dishes or creamy mushroom pastas, the floral fruit and mineral backbone giving plenty of versatility at the table without ever feeling heavy.
