Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Dec 20
The 2019 Volnay Le Ronceret 1er Cru, which is 100% destemmed, has a backward, broody nose of dense blackberry and briar fruit. The palate is fleshy on the entry with predominantly red fruit laced with clove and white pepper, showing fine delineation toward the confit-like finish. Quite sensual.

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.
