The wine region of Volnay
Feminine jewel of the Côte de Beaune producing the most delicate Pinot Noirs: signature Pinot Noir as the exclusive red king — pale ruby robe with refined aromas of cherry, raspberry, violet, peony and fine spices, silky tannins and a signature elegant finish; finesse and bouquet make it the most feminine of Burgundian reds. 29 Premiers Crus (Caillerets, Champans, Taillepieds). AOC (1937), ~213 ha on steep slopes, Oxfordian marl-limestone.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
