Volnay Premier Cru 2015

Certified organic Volnay Premier Cru 2015

An elegant blend of two Premier Cru parcels, “Les Mitans” and “Les Brouillards,” produce this finely balanced and delicate Pinot Noir. It is the perfume of ripe red fruits and aromatic herbs that really holds your attention at first, echoed on the palate too. The texture is dense and, perhaps, more rustic than the 2014, with tannins which will soften and express more complexity and balance with time.

Overlooking Pommard, Volnay spreads its vines on the steep slopes of the Hill of Chaignot. Our Premier Cru comes from a complex alliance of soils, including limestone, calcareous scree and clay. The grapes benefit from a southeasterly exposure.
