This Domaine that covers a huge range of villages specialize in whites and over the past decade have raised their stock exponentially.
The wines have a clear purity and minerality as well as a lovely weight and richness of fruit. The focus and precision is what makes them really stand out and with Celine Fontaine and her husband Fred Robert (formerly of Armand Rousseau) at the helm, you best keep a close eye on how high this Domaine will climb.
Drinking window: 2024 - 2034
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru has a classy bouquet with redcurrant, cranberry and light raspberry scents, pure and focused, though not as intense as previous vintages like you would expect. The palate is clean and precise, slightly creamy in texture on the entry, not plush but with a silky smooth, peppery finish that tingles after the wine has exited. Very fine."
