Goedhuis, December 2016
From the most central of Volnay’s premier cru sites, this is an absolute beauty. Deep shining purple colour, with beautifully expressive aromas of violets and freshly picked raspberries. A wine balancing volume with hints of layered minerality and velvety textured tannins. This is rock ‘n’ roll all the way.

Neal Martin, December 2016, Score: 92-94
The 2015 Volnay 1er Cru Les Carelles has a much more fruit-driven, ripe bouquet compared to the Volnay Caillerets with rounded mulberry and cassis aromas that are vivacious and sensual. Très Volnay! The palate is wonderfully balanced with great depth, quite sensual and harmonious, offering a wonderful crescendo of flavors towards the vivid and generous crushed strawberry and raspberry coulis finish. There is superb delineation here, completing what is a very impressive Volnay. Drink 2019 - 2035
Region
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 in Volnay, but there are some excellent premier cru examples including Volnay Les Champans and Volnay Les Caillerets. Chardonnay grown in the shared Santenots vineyard must be labelled as Meursault.
