This dark ruby-colored Volnay 1er Cru offers notes of red fruit, raspberry, ripe fruit and plum on the nose, with hints of graphite and spice. On the palate, a long persistence accompanies a beautiful richness, for a very racy, velvety finish.

"Fragrant nose of thyme, licorice, redcurrants and blackberries. Some orange peel. Very fresh acidity and lively fruit, with a medium-bodied body and fine tannins. Precise, long finish. Drink or cellar. (James Suckling 2023)

"Intense notes of fresh cranberry, rhubarb and pepper contribute to a voluminous nose of overripe strawberries and freshly picked cherries. The palate is round and textured, with aromas of ripe cherry, quince, limestone and salt, which quietly integrate into the long finish. Cellar until 2028. (Wine Enthusiast 2023)

89-92/100 Burghound
"Quite powerful, but more austere on the nose than the Caillerets, which does it some harm in this vintage, tannin a little too dry but which should soften with a decade or so of cellaring, spicy, nuanced and individualized." (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve). As its name suggests, the name of this Climat comes from an ancient oak wood that has long since disappeared.
Jean-Marie Bouzereau - Volnay 1er Cru Champans 2018
4/5 (2 reviews)
With its brilliant ruby color, Volnay 1er Cru Champans is very subtle on the nose, with notes of violet, redcurrant, cherry and spices. Silky on the palate, this is a very elegant wine whose concentration and complexity are expressed in a delicate, nuanced way.
Louis Jadot - Famille Gagey Volnay 1er Cru Robardelle 2016
5/5 (1 review)
This Volnay 1er cru Robardelle has a light carmine hue with orange edges. The nose reveals earthy, spicy notes, as well as hints of leather and undergrowth. Full-bodied on the palate, with aromas of blackcurrant, accompanied by a lovely roundness and powerful, well-presented tannins. Despite the evolution of the nose, this wine is fresh and well-established, with good aromatic persistence.

"Succulent red cherry and raspberry nectars stretch from nose to finish in this generous, richly concentrated wine. It's fruity and flavorful, enhanced by a touch of minerality and a delicate kiss of cherry blossom on the finish. Although this is a wine for laying down, with taut tannins in its youth, its current exuberance is equally seductive". (Wine Enthusiast 2022)
Château de Meursault - Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes 2020

-
91-93/100 Burghound
"The domaine farms 2.63 ha of this climat located under the Chagnot mountain on the Monthelie side, which is also the largest 1er cru in the appellation (15.4 ha). Ruby-red, intensely scented with redcurrant and smoky notes, this 2020 delivers a forward-looking version, full and silky on the attack, then firmly structured by square tannins that invite patience." (Le Guide Hachette 2024). This is a wine with notes of black fruit and spices, fleshy body and well-presented tannins.
H. et G. Buisson - Volnay 1er Cru Chanlin 2020
92+/100 Robert Parker
"Aromas of dark berries, cherries, hints of sweet earth and spice foreshadow the 2020 Volnay 1er Cru Chanlin, a medium to full-bodied, lively and fine wine with powdery tannins, lively acids and a long mineral finish. This is an attractive opus that will offer a wide drinking window." (Wine Advocate 2022)

As its name suggests, the name of this Climat comes from an ancient oak forest disappeared long ago. This emblematic and confidential red combines richness and generosity, without losing any of the elegance and finesse elegance and finesse of Volnay. Sublime!
Joseph Faiveley - Volnay 2017
4/5 (3 reviews)
The village is situated on one of the highest points of the Côte de Beaune, which has earned it the saying "Despite Pommard and Meursault, Volnay is always the highest". Volnay is renowned for the elegance of its red wines. This one exhales aromas of red berries mingled with spicy, smoky notes and a delicate woodiness. These gourmet flavors are enveloped by fine tannins that offer a velvety caress to the palate.
Louis Jadot - Volnay En l'Ormeau 1er Cru 2014
3/5 (2 reviews)
91-93+/100 Robert Parker
"The Volnay 1er Cru en l'Ormeau 2014 has a slight flavor advantage on the nose: bright red fruits, a hint of dried meat even iron notes. The palate is supple on entry with a lovely roundness, fine tannins (perhaps finer than the Santenots) and a very cohesive, convincing, fresh sorbet finish. What a magnificent Volnay! Highly recommended." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Neal Martin)
Didier Montchovet - Volnay 2017
3/5 (2 reviews)
Draped in bright red, Didier Montchovet's Volnay offers nuances of red fruit, with fresh aromas reminiscent of violets. On the palate, well-integrated acidity, soft, silky tannins and great elegance dominate. A fine pairing for powerful dishes such as game....

"The Volnay 1er cru Clos de la Barre 2013 has a slightly faisandé bouquet that opens generously in the glass: cherry, strawberry and sage. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, eye-catching tannins [...]. There's lovely volume on the finish." (Wine Advocate 2014 - Robert Parker)

91/100 Burghound
"Superb bouquet, of rare elegance, very precise in its aromas, slender, charming yet intense at the same time." (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France 2014). A beautiful red, aromatically complex and very deep, well-balanced, with a nice fat mouthfeel and a very perfumed finish. An exemplary Volnay!
