Pinot Noir | Volnay, Burgundy

Both Alex & Benoît made a Volnay 1er Cru Santenots in 2022.Officially located just south of the Volnay border in the commune of Meursault, the vineyard's Chardonnays must take the Meursault title. Santenots Pinot Noir reds are usually lush and rich with good structure, ripe tannins and good ageability.The large vineyard is on the steep mid-slope of the east-facing Côte d'Or hillside (although with something of a southeast aspect here) above the flatter land below.

Domaine Louis Boillot Pommard 1er Cru 'les Fremiers' 2022
“Elegant, cool and airy aromas include those of mostly essence of red currant and cherry along with discreet spice wisps. The dense and appealingly textured medium-bodied flavors coat the palate with dry extract that helps to buffer the dense but fine-grained tannins supporting the relatively powerful, dusty and youthfully austere finale. Patience is once again advised." ♥ OutstandingAllen Meadows, Burghound 91-93 Points

Domaine Louis Boillot Pommard 1er Cru 'Croix Noires' 2022
“This is perhaps even cooler and more restrained with its layered array of various dark berries, plum, freshly turned earth and a whiff of violet. The mid-palate mouthfeel of the middleweight plus flavors is quite refined yet this contrasts substantially with the moderately rustic, dusty, austere and serious finale. This very powerful and compact effort is expressly built-to-age and is one that is definitely going to need it, indeed I would be surprised if it is approachable before 10 years ha

Benjamin Leroux Volnay 1er Cru Santenots 2020

Pinot Noir | Volnay, Côte du Beaune

Les Santenots is one of the top 1er Cru sites of Volnay. Here, the clay-rich soils gift wines of perfumed depth and silken structure. To give you some idea of the site’s quality, many years ago we asked Benjamin Leroux if there was one vineyard in Volnay he would like to work with, and he replied Santenots without hesitation, mentioning that he buys the wine of this vineyard from his friend Dominique Lafon each year. Of course, he then went on to speak about Rugiens and Caillerets (the most re

Domaine Louis Boillot Volnay 1er Cru 'les Caillerets' 2022
“An agreeably fresh nose is more floral still with its notes of lavender and violet along with a plenitude of spice hints of spice suffusing the black cherry and dark currant scents. The rich, delicious and markedly punchy medium-bodied flavors possess evident minerality yet no lack of power that seems to build on the wonderfully persistence, balanced and textured finale. This is very much built-to-repay extended keeping which is a good thing as more depth would raise its attractiveness." ♥

Domaine de Montille Volnay 1er Cru 'En Champans' 2020
"Here too moderate reduction renders the nose difficult to assess. The relatively delicate and refined middle weight flavors possess no lack of punch that carries over to the youthfully austere, complex and sneaky long finish that is quite tightly wound so patience advised."

Aromas of wild berries, dark chocolate, sweet spices, licorice and rose petals preface the 2020 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes, a full-bodied, ample and layered wine that’s rich, powerful and gourmand, with a ripe core of fruit, powdery tannins and succulent balancing acids. It’s a compelling success, but it will reward some bottle age. Drink 2030-2050 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 94+ Points

Domaine Jean-Marc et Thomas Bouley Volnay 1er Cru Les Clos des Chênes Vielles Vignes 2022
The 2022 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes has turned out beautifully, wafting from the glass with notes of cassis, rose petals and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered palate with a cool core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins that assert themselves on the floral finish. Especially suave and perfumed, it's reminiscent of a purer, more integrated version of Bouley's 2019. Drink 2030-2050 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 95 Points

Domaine de la Pousse d'Or Volnay 1er Cru 'Clos de la Bousse d'Or' MAGNUM 2022
A perfumed and exceptionally pretty, elegant and pure nose speaks of wafting essence of red berries, especially cherry, along with exotic spice and floral wisps. I very much like the texture of the beautifully refined middleweight flavors that exude a fine bead of minerality on the bitter pit fruit-inflected finish that displays excellent length. This could use better depth but that should only be a matter of patience. 2034+ ♥ Sweet spot OutstandingAllen Meadows, Burghound  (91-94) Point
