Tasting Notes

89-91
Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2022 Volnay Les Angles 1er Cru, the first fruit to be picked as usual, is well-defined on the nose: red berry fruit and crushed limestone scents, a less exotic style than before. The palate is well-balanced with succulent black fruit, black pepper and a touch of marmalade. With fine length on the finish, this is far improved on the 2021.

Volnay Fine Wine

Volnay

Volnay, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, is famed for elegant, refined Pinot Noir wines with silky texture, aromatic complexity, and graceful ageing potential. These wines feature delicate flavours of red berries, like cherry and raspberry, with floral notes and subtle earth and spice. Though lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Crus like Les Caillerets and Clos des Chênes are highly esteemed for their finesse and depth. Top producers include Domaine Michel Lafarge, Domaine Marquis d'Angerville, and Domaine Hubert de Montille, all dedicated to expressing Volnay's unique terroir.
