2017 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets, Domaine Jean-Marc Bouley

Many people believe that Caillerets is the best terroir in Volnay. Although these vines are still relatively young (13-14 years old) they have given a wine of vibrant richness and beauty. The bunches were totally de-stemmed prior to fermentation. This is a very pretty, ruby purple, with delightful fragrance. Palate is lively, intensely fruity, with freshness and gentle tannins poised in perfect balance. This wine is to Volnay what Amoureuses is to Chambolle – graceful, with floating flavours, combining harmony with lovely length (for drinking 2021- 2032+).
