Who better to reinvigorate a slumping, bank-owned icon than a former banker? That's just what happened when the de Montille family purchased Chateau de Puligny-Montrachet from Credit Foncier and, in 2002, Etienne de Montille quit finance and set about restoring glory by moving the winery into biodynamic practices and reducing yields and oak content. Good move.
