The 2013 Monthelie Champs Fulliot 1er Cru, lying close to Volnay Clos des Chenes, has commendable purity and swagger on the nose with redcurrant jam and boysenberry scents. The palate is medium-bodied with good density and tension, harmonious from the start with a touch of spice becoming more accentuated toward the finish that gradually fans out. This is a lovely Monthelie that should age well and at the price comes recommended.
