Special characteristic

Destemming and triage of the grapes. Transfer into fermentation vessels, with maceration (skin contact) lasting around 20 days. Careful maturation with 50% in 350-litre barrels (25% first-use). Only minimally filtered before bottling.

Ruby colour. Elegant nose with ripe red berries, cherry, violet and subtle oak-influenced notes of vanilla and coffee. This Volnay has a very silky palate and a medium body. Pleasantly fruit-forward and complex on a persistent finish.

Sourced from the Clos de la Rougeotte premier cru. The terroir in Volnay is dominated by limestone overlain by banks of schist. Grown at altitudes of between 230 and 280 metres, Volnay wines have great aromatic intensity and exceptional finesse.
