2022 Volnay 1. Cru Les Chevrets Henri Boillot

A fine even purple colour with a spectacular nose of ripe candied cherries a beautifully balanced classical Volnay, with silky tannins and then at the back a resurgence of the fruit, intense yet with purity and balance. Very fine.

(from 25+ year old vines). A soft application of wood can be found on the ripe liqueur-like nose of dark raspberry, cassis and anise. There is a bit more volume to the beautifully textured and seductively rich medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a sleek, focused and sneaky long finish where a touch of bitter pit fruit character slowly emerges. Lovely in a riper yet fresh and balanced style.
