Goedhuis, December 2022
This blend of four different plots - Les Buttes, Les Grand Champs, Les Famines and Les Lurets - from vineyards aged between 10-60 years old, produces a very complete example of the appellation. Brilliant purple colour, very expressive with blueberry and huckleberry flavours. A sweet purity of fruit, with fine powder-like tannins and a stylish finish.
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.
