Domaine Stéphane Aladame Montagny Prélude 2021
The name says it all: Prélude is the introductory Montagny, sourced from the vineyards of Le May (Saint-Vallerin) and Les Coères (Montagny). It was raised for 10 months in a combination of tank (60%) and older barrels (40%). The wine displays volume, yet it remains braced by a consistent thread of acidity. Pithy and fleshy with a citrus edge, it’s a perfectly balanced example of this underrated appellation. The palate sports finely honed citrus and mineral notes, impressive finesse and proper length. It’s delicious, charming, great value and has been described by Jasper Morris MW as, “An exemplary source of characterful Montagny.”
