Tasting note
Our Volnay Premier Cru "En Chevret" 2013 has a pleasant bright and deep
ruby color. The nose, fresh and lightly peppery, reveals cherry and liquorice aromas. The palate
is opulent and rich with flavours of liquorice, red fruits and toasted almond. A rich wine with
an enjoyable lingering finish.
Description
This wine originates in the village of Volnay just south of Beaune and is a neighbour of
Pommard. The "En Chevret" parcel of vines is located below the main road, just under the
"Caillerets" parcel at the border of the village of Meursault. The easterly exposition and the
specific terroir of this single vineyard give us an elegant wine at each vintage.
