2023 Volnay Origines Nicolas Rossignol
£210.00 In Bond £252.00 Inc VAT (£42.00 Per Bottle)-
Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024
A blend of four unique plots, housing vines aged between 10 and 60 years old, this is a complex wine that belies its village status. The limestone-dominant parcels at the top of the hill bring refreshing minerality and a bright fruit profile, with fresh red cherry and cranberry notes that make it charming from the off. Meanwhile, the heavier clay soils towards the bottom of the slope bring power and depth to the core of the cuvée; a superb example of Nicolas’s skill.
2023 Volnay 1er Cru Santenots Nicolas Rossignol

Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024
At a little over 2 hectares, Nicolas Rossignol owns the largest portion of Les Santenots, a Premier Cru site that in fact lies wholly within Meursault. Here, the vineyards sit on large rocks of limestone with pockets of red, iron-rich soil, which produce wines that have the textural depth of Pommard, but without the boisterous tannins. Certainly, this is a ruminative, complex wine, yet its charming black berry profile, delicate spice, and juicy fruit-flecked tannins keep things utterly joyful.
2023 Pommard 1er Cru Les Épenots Nicolas Rossignol
£740.00 In Bond £888.00 Inc VAT (£148.00 Per Bottle)-
Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024
From the lower slopes of Pommard, there are parts of the vineyard which were planted way back in 1900, resulting in an extremely intense and concentrated wine. Once again, this wine was vinified using 100% whole clusters, such was the quality of fruit from these exceptional old vines. The nose displays intense black cherry and blackberry fruit, with a nod towards sweet liquorice and black pepper spice. With its soft, ripe tannins, concentration of fruit, and geniality, this is a Pommard which perfectly sums up Pinot Noir from 2023. It will age like a dream too!
