Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Mar 23
The 1990 Volnay Clos des Ducs 1er Cru has been a bit variable in the past. This one has a ripe nose with crushed red cherries, strawberries and marmalade hints. Maybe it's lacking the stature of a great Clos des Ducs? The palate is marked by some dry tannins, quite oaky and missing a bit of acidity, rather charcoal-like on the finish. Maybe better bottles or some bottle variation?

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.
