From a 0.75-hectare parcel of 65-year-old vines, the 2016 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Santenots was not destemmed since the bottom part of the parcel was hit by frost. It has a fragrant bouquet, very floral and more Volnay-like compared to the Volnay Santenots, just more personality and expression. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a lovely silver bead of acidity, very harmonious with a poised, mineral-driven finish. Superb.
Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

The region is highly respected as an excellent producer of Chardonnay wines, and the Chardonnay grapes which grow there, on the southern slopes of the Cote d'Or, are packed full of the unique and powerful characteristics of this very special terroir. Interestingly, Cote De Beaune produces more red wine than white wine, despite its white wines being so famous. The red wines of Cote De Beaune are mainly made from Pinot Noir, but are relatively very light and fruity in their character, perfect for sipping on a warm, sunny day alongside a wide range of foods.

Deep red with ruby tones. Deeper, more important nose hints at medicinal dark cherry and spices. A big step up in concentration over the basic Santenots, conveying an almost chocolatey ripeness and terrific density to its kirsch, spice and savory mineral flavors. This fruit was picked four days later than the younger Santenots vines and the wine delivers much more complexity and grip. Shows a relaxed quality that belies the low yield. Excellent balance and potential here.

Moderate wood frames a similar array of aromas though there is notably better complexity and this is true as well for the much denser and more powerful medium weight flavors where the dry extract imparts a velvety texture to the powerful finish. Very good quality.

Wine Spectator
Bright cherry and strawberry flavors get support from earth and spice notes in this polished red. Features assertive tannins on the finish, but overall this is balanced, resonant and long. Best from 2021 through 2033. 20 cases imported.
Winery Notes
Classical ruby red. Subtle with delicate spicy and fruity (vanilla, cherry) and slightly mentholated notes. The palate is delicious and smooth. Tasty fruity texture evolving into spicy and menthol notes. Fine, fresh and subtle tannins.
