Volnay 1er Cru - Les Mitans
100% destemmed, with two weeks on skins before ageing in a mix of 300L and 228L barrels (no new oak).
Expressive aromas of cherry, raspberry and rose petal lead to a silky, medium-weight palate with bright acidity and beautifully refined tannins. Elegant, harmonious and unmistakably Volnay, the finish is long, pure and finely detailed.
Drink: 2028–2038
Production: 975 bottles + 20 magnums
Jasper Morris — Inside Burgundy
A fresh ruby crimson colour. The fruit on the nose suggests a touch of velvet. This is harmonious on the palate, very Volnay in style, ripe enough raspberry backed by good acidity. Three barrels, none new, with just a few whole bunches.
4 stars, 90-93 pts. October 2025.
