A more brooding and powerful Volnay, showing the muscular quality that comes from the heavy clay and limestone soils that dominate this large 1.07Ha holding, planted between 1934 and 1985. 21 barrels made in 2022, compared to just 8 in 2021.

An amazing concentration of black fruits and succulent strawberry compote; this is a sweeter and more ripe version of Champans than normal, with a greater degree of concentration. Balance here aplenty, with a touch of liquorice at the finish and a lovely vibrant freshness.
