Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The 2020 Montagny 1er Cru is open and expressive delivering aromas of pear freshly baked bread and citrus oil. Medium to full-bodied ample and fleshy with bright acids and a precise finish it will offer a broad drinking window. In the August 2021 Week 2 Issue of The Wine Advocate I devoted a feature to the wines and work of Jean-Marc Vincent so I direct readers to that piece rather than attempt to reprise all its minutiae here. As I wrote in that piece my first look at Vincent's 2020s from barrel in Summer 2021 convinced me that this is his finest vintage to date?and by some margin in the case of several cuvées?and when I returned to formally review them in November those early impressions were if anything strengthened. These wines set a new benchmark for Santenay and I couldn't recommend them more warmly. Published: Jan 31 2023 The 2020 Montagny 1er Cru offers up aromas of white flowers lime zest green pear and fresh pastry followed by a medium to full-bodied satiny and enveloping palate that's bright and chalky concluding with a saline finish.
