2023 Volnay, Clos des Chênes, 1er Cru, Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur, Burgundy

Description

François sources the fruit here from three plots totalling 0.5 hectares. Fully de-stemmed and aged in 30% new oak, this is a wonderfully perfumed Volnay, exuding aromas of violet and rose petal. On the palate there are complex notes of sweet cherry and wild raspberry, alongside well-defined notes of blackberry and subtle spice. The tannins are seductively silky. Coupled with the impressive freshness and persistent finish, this wine will undoubtedly provide plenty of pleasure in the future.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 91-93/100
Another intense purple colour. The bouquet has been knocked back a bit by a recent sulphur addition. No doubting the balanced intensity of the fruit, a correct degree of ripeness, the finish tightened up by the recent racking and treatments, but a wealth of classy dark berry fruit stretching out into a long finish. Needs more elevage to finish getting where it is going.

Drink 2030-2036.
