About the Producer

Domaine Monthélie-Douhairet-Porcheret, to give it its full name, was founded over three hundred years ago. In the last century, its rise was due to Armande Douhairet, who never married, and was known affectionately as ‘Miss’. She was one of the few women to run a Burgundy domaine at that time, and forged a reputation for distinctive, terroir-driven wines. Her adoptive son André Porcheret was joined by his grand-daughter Cataldina in 2004, and she now runs the 6.5 ha with the assistance of her partner Vincent. She has carried on the work of her great-grandmother and produces pure, elegant wines from Monthélie, Volnay, Pommard and Meursault that perfectly reflect their origins. Monthélie’s vineyards are a little higher up the slope, giving them an extra edge of freshness in warm vintages.

They are excellent value.
About the Latest Vintage

The elevated vineyards of Monthélie were particularly exposed during the black frosts of early April, and despite their best efforts, with heavy candle use over three nights, the do-maine lost 80% of its white crop. The later budding Pinot saw only 25% reduction. It took another month for the vines to get over the shock and resume growth, and team morale was low. Things did not improve over the summer, with rain creating constant mildew pressure, but they were spared the headache of rot at the end of the season. A large team of fifty pickers began harvesting on 18th September and finished after a short rain break on 26th. They gathered a small but healthy crop.

Vinification was another challenge, particularly for the reds. It was hard to extract colour: push too hard with your punching down or pumping over, and you found yourself with vegetal flavours; too lightly, and the wines would be excessively pale with insufficient tannin. Cataldina settled on some gentle pumping over to preserve the delicate musts, with a longer than usual post-fermentation maceration on the skins. She seems to have got it bang on: the wines are balanced, fresh and pure. Morale is restored!
