class=\"s-rg-t\">Auxois<\/span>\u00a0with the Lords of\u00a0<span id=\"142\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Commeau<\/span>.<\/span><span id=\"p121\">\u00a0In the words of Hubert de\u00a0<span id=\"143\" class=\"s-bl-t\">Montille<\/span>The estate was created in 1730.<\/span><span id=\"p122\">\u00a0After the marriage of Marie El\u00e9onore Chauvelot de\u00a0<span id=\"145\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Chevannes<\/span>\u00a0and Etienne Joseph-Marie L\u00e9once\u00a0<span id=\"147\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Bizouard<\/span>\u00a0from\u00a0<span id=\"148\"

id=\"150\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Montille<\/span>\u00a0April 9, 1863.<\/span><span id=\"p123\">\u00a0Grandfather, as he was known in those days, \"Montille\", spent his time between the domains of\u00a0<span id=\"155\">Volnay and<\/span>\u00a0from\u00a0<span id=\"153\">Cr\u00e9ancey<\/span> in addition to the farming company he created.<\/span><span id=\"p186\">\u00a0In those days, wealth was not recognized.<\/span><span id=\"p125\">\u00a0These riches include more than twenty hectares of magnificent terroirs cultivated with Pinot Noir in the C\u00f4te de Beaune, but also on the C\u00f4te en nuit with Musigny, Bonnes Mares and Chambolle-Musigny 1.\u00a0<span id=\"163\" class=\"s-rg-t\">er<\/span>\u00a0Cru\u00a0<span id=\"164\" class=\"s-rg-t\">\u00a0\"the<\/span>\u00a0<span id=\"165\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Lovers \"<\/span>.<\/span><span id=\"p126\">\u00a0Today, these vineyards are the stuff of dreams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"p127\">Hubert's arrival on the estate takes another turn.<\/span><span id=\"p128\">\u00a0He leads a life between the vine and the law.<\/span><span id=\"p129\">\u00a0But he remains a great wine enthusiast, as he can remember all the vintages in his head.<\/span><span id=\"p130\">\u00a0In the 1950s, the Hubert de\u00a0<span id=\"176\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Montille<\/span>\u00a0confirms its identity.<\/span><span id=\"p131\">\u00a0In the words of \u00c9tienne :<\/span><span id=\"p132\">\u00a0\"My father is a man of character and taste.<\/span><span id=\"p189\">\u00a0He quickly realized that he wanted to make wines that he liked, not wines that were just for him.\u00a0<span id=\"190\" class=\"s-bl-t\">sell\".<\/span><\/span><span id=\"p187\">\u00a0During this period, 90 % of the region's wines were in a period of negotiation, with small estates trying to make a name for themselves by making completely deferred wines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"p135\">Etienne gradually began to follow in his father's footsteps, but his father insisted that his son first learn a real trade, always in the legal world, to respect the family tradition.<\/span><span id=\"p188\">\u00a0Over time, Etienne, with his father's help, adapted to the vinification process, until 2001, when he returned to the ch\u00e2teau to look after the vines.<\/span><span id=\"p137\">\u00a0Then, in 2003, he did his utmost to enlarge the estate to produce exceptional vines.<\/span><span id=\"p138\">\u00a0But above all, his priority is to bring the estate back to the C\u00f4te de Nuit, to the heart of the region.\u00a0<span id=\"183\" class=\"s-rg-t\">Clos-Vougeot<\/span>in Vosne-Roman\u00e9e, right next to La T\u00e2che.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"p139\">Today, the estate has a surface area of 35 hectares, 75 of which are %.\u00a0<span id=\"185\" class=\"s-or-t\">First<\/span>\u00a0and Grands Crus on both C\u00f4tes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Some of the estate's vintages:<\/h2>\n<p><span id=\"p198\"><span
