2020 Volnay, Camille Giroud, Burgundy

Description

This is from Cros Martin and Lurets, on deeper soil towards the Meursault end of Volnay. Carel feels this wine once lacked some depth; he encouraged the grower to work the soil deeper to force the roots down. The wine is now “more Volnay than Pinot”. There is bright, rich red fruit, silky tannins and a floral lift.

Critics reviews

Neal Martin MW 88-90/100
The 2020 Volnay Les Lurets 1er Cru is very perfumed on the nose with rose petal and iris infusing the red fruit, more vibrant than the Village Cru. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, good grip, though I am just seeking a little more tension on the finish here.Drink 2024-2037Neil Martin, Vinous.com (Oct 2021)

From the village part of Lurets and Cros Martin. A luxurious rich purple. The bouquet is a little more restrained. Very concentrated and might seem a little heavy except for the finishing freshness. Just lacks a little of the Volnay eleganceJasper Morris MW, insideburgundy_com (January 2022)

About this wine

Volnay

Volnay

The finest and most elegant red wines of the Côte de Beaune are grown in Volnay, a village which might be twinned with Chambolle-Musigny in the Côte de Nuits, for the high active chalk content in the soil and comparatively low clay content. Whereas in earlier times Volnay was made in a particularly light, early drinking style, these days there are many producers making wines which age extremely well.
