2023 Volnay 1er Cru Les Brouillards, Domaine Violot-Guillemard

2023 Volnay 1er Cru Les Brouillards, Domaine Violot-Guillemard

When Joannes Violot-Guillemard turns his hand to Pommard, it’s with the same finesse and silky tension that he brings to the precise and perfumed character of his Pommards. Les Brouillards borders Pommard, and shows a little of the muscle and brawn of its neighbour, with a distinctly floral tone to the fruit. Refined, detailed and utterly delicious.

Tasting notes

100% whole bunch vinification but all aged in wood, no ceramic. Mid purple. Pretty red berry fruit, sweet strawberry, a little blood orange, fair acidity. Higher pH here I suspect. Drink from 2029-2034. Tasted Oct 2024.
