Like the Volnay Taillepieds, this is one of the smaller cuvées in the Buffet stable. It comes from the upper part of the vineyard, planted with vines that are now well over their hundred year mark. All work here is done by horse, and the attention to detail continues in the cellar. It is swish and stylish, with plenty of toothsome power and muscular drive. Unlike some of the Volnay premiers crus from this domaine, this wine will need some time, so tuck it away for a few years.
Mid purple, a delicious nose, fine depth, all in red fruit while also showing the oak at the moment. Perhaps the 2022 Rugiens is a touch lighter than expected at the back, pretty rather than super-dynamic, but delicious nonetheless. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted: October 2023.
