Description

The frost was hard on the flatter vineyards in Volnay. Grand Poisots was added to this Volnay blend last year, to accompany the longstanding components of Gigottes and Grands Champs. Even so, only four barrels were produced compared to last year’s twelve. This is a neat, positive wine, enjoyable without being especially demanding. Drink 2023 – 2029.

About this wine

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.
