Description
This is arguably St Aubin’s best vineyard, but it is not homogenous. The top section on the plateau can suffer in warm vintages, but De Montille’s vines are lower down, on deeper soil. This is always picked early in the harvest to avoid any tropical notes to the fruit. There is instead ripe citrus, along with a chalky, mouthwatering freshness.

Critics reviews
Pale lemon yellow. Very primary fermentation aromas. Fresh apples, then a raft of ripe white fruit even with some sucrosity, adequate acidity behind. The 2022 En Remilly has a fairly generous profile this year – while avoiding the roasted stones of excess heat.
Drink 2025 - 2030
From a 1.8 ha holding of 60 year old vines.
Here, the nose flirts with exoticism in the form of citrus confit and white peach, along with pretty floral elements. There is fine volume to the enveloping and caressing, if decidedly punchy, medium-bodied flavours that flash evident minerality on the moderately firm, bone-dry, and youthfully austere finale. Lovely, and this, too, could be successfully cellared or enjoyed after only 2 to 3 years.
