Very elegant and punches above its weight (53 views) | | | Tasted by Yassine23 on 3/17/2024: Excellent, more floral and in more need of time than Grandes Gouttes, definitely punches above it's weight (197 views) | | | Tasted by trifreddy on 2/20/2024 & rated 92 points: "Provenant d'une parcelle juste en dessous de Meursault 'Sous la Velle', La Monatine ! Un lieu-dit intéressant et racé, en Bourgogne Blanc."
Superbe bouquet sur les agrumes et fleurs blanches. Bonne acidité, de la matière en bouche et très belle longueur, effectivement excellent! (258 views) | | | Tasted by Xavier Auerbach on 9/24/2023 & rated 91 points: A "cult" wine tasting and lunch (Restaurant Bak, Amsterdam, NL): Magnum. Next to Sous la Velle. Older wood, very little sulfur. Solid Burgundy, good weight, not too earthy, lovely purity in the fruit, silky texture, good length. (1459 views) | | | Tasted by Lehto on 7/7/2023 & rated 90 points: My first bottle from Marthe Henry and I need to start out with saying; get some bottles for yourself before it's too late! This is a very high level for a Bourgogne Blanc!
It definitely gave me some "mini-Meursault"-vibes. Quite yellow in color even this young, but I think it spends about 18 months in barrel.
A great symphony of orchard fruits, toasted oak, freshly churned butter but brown butter as well. A touch of white flowers add to the creamy and slightly rich and powerful mouthfeel, but there's a piercing citrus and green apple acidity with a slight green herbal bitter touch and a profound saline minerality.
This is a wine not really going off in any specific direction but stays well in the middle of it all. For an entry-level Bourgogne Blanc at this price point I'm extremely interested in trying more from Marthe - especially her Meursaults... (470 views) |

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
