En Primeur | Volnay

A red wine appellation only, wines from Volnay might be considered the most revered of southern Burgundy. They have been celebrated since the 18th century for their delicacy. But they are not fruit forward like those of Beaune or Chorey Lès Beaune nor have the brooding structure of Pommard. Instead, they have superb linearity, focus and poise while sheathed in velvety tannin. This slightly reticent personality comes out even more with a bit of age, though some can be approached very young. There are no Grand Cru vineyards, but there are some excellent Premier Cru examples including Volnay Les Champans and Volnay Les Caillerets.

    Goedhuis, December 2020

    Thomas says Caillerets is to Volnay what Les Amoureuses is to Chambolle Musigny: a Grand Cru in all but name. He destalked all the fruit in 2019 to allow the pure fruit flavours of this fine vineyard to fully express themselves. Beautifully bright with red berry fruits, this is fresh and vibrant, with a touch of mineral drive. Great length.
