The first sentence of this article is clearly a statement of opinion and not of fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.105.56.142 (talk) 13:51, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The last syllable is pronounced "shay," I believe.[edit]
I believe it is appropriate to mention that there is a disagreement over the pronunciation of this word. I have for years argued that standard French would make the pronunciation Mon-tra-shay. However, I recently talked to a person from France who grew up in the area where Montrachet is produced. She is actually involved in the wine business and she informed me that the pronunciation used in the area is Mon-ra-shay. Apparently both pronunciations are used in France. I no longer have a dog in this fight. But I do think it is an interesting controversy --it comes up over and over again at wine tastings. Merritt22 (talk) 16:51, 11 June 2011 (UTC)Merritt22[reply]
To be honest, trying to render a pronounciation (in particular of a foreign word) into "written standard English" is a very pointless activity, in particular if you aim for encyclopedic correctness. There is definitely no such thing as a standard pronounciation in English of a random stream of letters. If you can't render a pronounciation it using the International Phonetic Alphabet, don't even try. Tomas e (talk) 17:11, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
