Looking for "Montagny "

[ddf68]

Larriet, Montagny is a village in the Cotes de Chalonnaise (southern Burgundy, wedged in between the Macon and the Cote D'Or). Wines made in Montagny will typically be from Chardonnay but the word Chardonnay will not typically appear on the bottle. Instead, the bottle will be labelled Montagny and may also include the name of the vineyard (there are dozens of premier cru vineyards in Montagny). I haven't seen a lot of Montagny but one that seems common is the Louis Latour Montagny "Grand Roche".

If you go to www.winesearcher.com and type in Montagny you will find a couple dozen wines from Montagny.
