Louis Jadot Description
Volnay lies roughly in the center of the Côte de Beaune, bordered by Pommard to the Northeast, Monthélie to the West and Meursault to the South. The southeasterly exposed vineyards produce only red wines and 26 Premiers Crus. Crowned by a limestone plateau, the Volnay vineyards have a sub soil composed of Argovien marlstone and in its bordering parts of Pommard and Meursault, a Bathonien clay and limestone scree. The altitude varies between 230 and 370 meters above sea level. The fermentation takes place in tank for 3 – 4 weeks, after which they are aged in barrel for an average of 12 months before being bottled.
Wine Enthusiast: 91 Points
The sumptuous wine is rich, with fine tannins and layers of black fruits. It celebrates the fact that this appellation produced some fine wines after four years without much quantity.
