IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

We have been great fans of the beautifully crafted Vezelay wines of the Domaine de la Cadette for some time after first noticing them on the wine list at iconic Paris restaurant Le Chateaubriand. We have visited Jean and Catherine Montanet and their son Valentin on a number of occasions since then in the small village of St Pére near Vezelay and have always been inspired by the quality of their wines and the precision of the winemaking.

Domaine Montanet-Thoden is owned by Catherine Montanet and Tom Thoden and the wines are now made by Valentin who is showing that he has learned well from his father and is making wines of the same purity but with his own distinctive stamp.
