Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Neal Martin
The 2022 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru comes from vines planted in 1984. It has a light, menthol-tinged bouquet that opens nicely in the glass with quite a lot of blue fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with the most saturated tannins amongst Voillot's Volnays, fresh and tensile with more delineation on the finish. This should age well in bottle.
About the Producer
Domaine Joseph Voillot is located in Volnay, a small wine village a few kilometres from Beaune.The 13 appellations of the estate are all produced with equal care in the purest Burgundian tradition with respect for our terroirs. Domaine Joseph Voillot is managed by Etienne Chaix, grandson of Joseph and nephew of Jean-Pierre Charlot who has taken a step back but remains on hand when needed. Reasoned agriculture is part of every intervention in our vine parcels for the best possible results, and our intention is to always make the best decisions keeping the environment in mind. Our farm has been awarded the high environmental value (HVE) certification.
