Tasting Note
Elegant Volnay: red cherry, wild raspberry and rose-petal aromas with forest-floor minerality, clove and subtle smoked notes. Silky tannins, bright acidity and a long mineral finish—refined, precise and ageworthy.

Food Pairing
Western: roast duck, coq au vin, lamb chops, mushroom risotto, soft washed-rind cheeses (Époisses, Comté). Asian: Peking duck, char siu or hoisin-glazed pork, soy-ginger duck, miso aubergine, mushroom ramen/udon.

Production Method
Hand-harvested organic fruit; substantial whole-bunch fermentation; aged ~18–24 months in large Stockinger vats and barrels (≈20% new oak); bottled unfiltered with minimal cellar intervention.

Vineyard Info
