Monthelie

A small village nestling in a valley behind Meursault and Volnay, Monthelie produces mostly red wines, mini-Volnays with appealing fruit but sometimes a rustic edge, and a small amount of white wine. The best wines come from the steep slopes above the village, such as Les Duresses.

• 109 hectares of village Monthelie.
• 31 hectares of premier cru vineyards (11 in all). Best vineyard is Les Duresses.
