The Taillepieds from de Montille has long been one of the iconic wines of the domaine and in 2021 it did not disappoint. The wine boasts ripe blackberry fruit with violet earth and liquorice notes. The texture is firmly tannic yet there is a supple quality as well and enough density to assure lingering finish. The grapes come from two parcels totaling 1.5 hectares. Most of the grapes from the old vines are left as whole bunches prior to the fermentation and ageing in cask with a modest proportion of new oak. (Drink between 2025 - 2045). By Charles Curtis MW
Jasper Morris: 91-93 Points
50% whole cluster. Medium depth of crimson colour. Lifted fresh red berry with a certain acidity. The Taillepieds is evenly balanced on the palate with a wealth of attractive dark red fruit sitting alongside the whole cluster freshness. Drink from 2027-2032.
Burghound: 91-94 Points
The gorgeously refined and pungently mineral-driven middleweight flavors culminate in a chalky, long, balanced and classically austere finale. Textbook Taillepieds. (Drink starting 2033)
