2023 Volnay, Michel Lafarge

2023 Volnay, Michel Lafarge

For many, Lafarge is Volnay. This is a blend of their lower-lying parcels of village Volnay, four of which lie on the Pommard side, and two on the Meursault side. This wine is always elegant and perfumed, with an expressive silky frame. In 2023 this is a seamless and beautiful wine offering notes of red and dark cherries, hints of fresh violets with a subtle spiced note on the finish.

Tasting notes

Mid crimson purple. The nose is a little more restrained. Now some lively cherries on the palate with very good grip, a little bit of white pepper, with the fruit returning effortlessly behind. Smoothly charming. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted Dec 2024.
