The 2022 Feuillat-Juillot Montagny Cuvée Camille is a beautifully crafted white Burgundy from one of the leading estates in the Côte Chalonnaise. Domaine Feuillat-Juillot is renowned for producing some of the finest wines of Montagny, with a strong focus on old vines, sustainable viticulture and expressing the distinctive limestone-rich terroir of the appellation. Cuvée Camille represents a selection of the estate’s best parcels, delivering greater depth and complexity while retaining the freshness and elegance that define top Montagny Chardonnay.
The nose reveals white peach, pear and lemon curd alongside notes of acacia blossom, toasted almond and subtle flinty minerality. The palate is finely textured and beautifully balanced, combining ripe orchard and stone fruit with bright acidity and a chalky mineral backbone. Hints of hazelnut, citrus zest and gentle oak influence add complexity, while the finish is long, fresh and remarkably precise. The 2022 vintage brings excellent concentration and balance, making this a particularly attractive expression of Montagny.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A superb white Burgundy that offers outstanding value for lovers of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet. Elegant, mineral and beautifully textured, it pairs wonderfully with scallops, lobster, roast chicken, grilled fish and creamy poultry dishes. Enjoy now and over the next 6–10 years as it develops additional complexity, richness and savoury nuance.
