Succulent red cherry and raspberry nectar extend from nose to finish in this generous, richly concentrated wine. It's a fruity, lip-smacking sip elevated by a mineral edge and delicate cherry-blossom kiss on the finish. While it's an age-worthy wine with taut tannins in youth, its current exuberance readily charms as well. ... More details

Fragrant and delicate, this has beautiful red-fruit character that’s currently more open on the palate than the nose. Very elegant with plenty of fine tannins that are married to lively acidity and pronounced minerality at the long, focused finish. Drink or hold.

Rated 91 by Wine Advocate
Bursting with notes of earthy cherries, flowers and spices, the 2019 Volnay 1er Cru En Chevret is medium-bodied, supple and charming, with an enveloping core of fruit and a long, lively finish. This is one of the more elegant wines in the range this year.

A pretty red, featuring cherry, strawberry, floral and sandalwood flavors. Slim, with a well-proportioned structure and fine balance, ending with oak spice elements. Drink now through 2030. 1,000 cases made, 250 cases imported.
Winery
Garnet red colored, the Volnay 1er Cru “En Chevret” reveals a delicious bouquet of cherry accompanied by a touch of mocha. The mouth, ample and fresh, offers licorice and chlorophyll aromas. The tannins are silky.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is one of the planet's most widely grown and enjoyed grape varietals, and thanks to the popularity of the key wines it is associated with – Burgundy and Champagne – it has successfully spread from its native home in France to much of the wine producing world. Pinot Noir means 'black pine' in French, and this refers to the extremely dark, inky color of the fruit, and the fact that it grows in conical bunches, resembling a large pine cone. It has long been revered for its wide range of refreshing, summery flavors, and the fact that it produces red wines of a beautiful garnet color and light body. More recently, sparkling wines made exclusively with Pinot Noir have been extremely popular, and the orchard notes found in the fizzy 'blanc des noirs' wines mark out just how versatile this grape varietal really is. Despite being notoriously difficult to grow, it isn't hard to see why this grape is now found in vineyards all over the world, as it is synonymous with romance and decadence, quality and fantastic flavor

Region: Burgundy

In the beautiful French wine region of Burgundy, there is archaeological evidence to suggest that there has been viticultural activity going on for at least two thousand years. To add to this, there are early written records praising the exceptional wines produced in this region dating back to the 6th century, making Burgundy one of the oldest established and still operational wine regions in the world. The region is most commonly associated with fine red wines, with Pinot Noir being the primary grape varietal grown on its rolling hillsides and gently sloping valleys. However, Chardonnay grapes are also produced in abundance for the production of their fine white wines, with both varietals benefiting greatly from the region's warm, hot summers and the superb soils which make up the terroir.

Country: France

It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.

Appellation: Cote De Beaune

Anyone who knows anything about fine white wines, and especially fine Chardonnay wines, will surely tell you that there is nowhere on earth quite as impressive as Cote De Beaune when it comes to this particular grape varietal. This beautiful part of the Cote d'Or has been producing many of the world's finest Chardonnay wines for centuries, and their blend of traditional and modern techniques mean that their reputation has been upheld and maintained in the twenty-first century. However, it isn't all about white wine in Cote De Beaune, as the area also produces vast amounts of characterful and interesting red wines, predominantly made from the Pinot Noir grape. Cote De Beaune Pinot Noir tends to be lighter and fruitier than others, and absolutely delicious.
