Decanter 95 points This has a ripe plummy fruit, with lots of depth from the notes of spice and smoke, and a firm core, yet absolutely no rough edges at all, just a polished elegance that lingers interminably on the palate. The de Montille family is from Volnay and this holding is among the central, historic parcels of the domaine. There are two parcels: the upper part, which is partly destemmed, and the lower section with more limestone gravel in the soil, where the oldest vines are found. This latter fruit is always fermented as 100% whole-cluster. Drinking Window: 2025-2036

Tim Atkin 95 points Domaine de Montille is the largest owner of Rugiens-Bas with 1 hectare 02 ares, and these vines are approximately 55 years old. Two-thirds whole clusters were used here, and the resulting wine explodes with aromas of mulberries, twigs, anise and dried wildflowers. It's incredibly intense and even feels full in body thanks to its excellent vinosity. 2025-38.

Vinous 93 points The 2020 Volnay Les Taillepieds 1er Cru comes from two parcels is 90% whole cluster. Brambly red berry fruit is mingling with black pepper, clove and touches of undergrowth. The palate is medium-bodied with quite succulent tannins, more rondeur here than the other Volnays, plush and quite luxuriant wiht a sensual and very pure finish. Superb. Drink: 2025-2048.
