Domaine de La Pousse d'Or, Volnay Clos de la Bousse d'Or 2023

Domaine de La Pousse d’Or’s Volnay Clos de la Bousse d’Or 2023 is a refined Premier Cru Burgundy from one of the domaine’s historic monopoles. Fully owned by the estate and situated directly around its cellars in Volnay, this distinguished parcel delivers a compelling combination of silken texture, vibrant freshness and impressive depth.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a bright ruby colour. Its expressive nose opens with ripe red cherries and raspberries, followed by delicate violet, subtle spice and a finely judged mineral note. On the palate, it is graceful and silky, with beautifully integrated tannins, lively acidity and a long, precise finish. Accessible in its youthful fruit yet supported by excellent structure, the 2023 should gain further complexity over the next several years and develop well with mid-term cellaring.

Production
Made from hand-harvested Pinot Noir, the grapes are completely destemmed before fermenting with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled tanks. The wine undergoes a slow, carefully controlled vinification before ageing for approximately 15 months in French oak barriques, around 30% of which are new. It is matured on its fine lees and bottled without fining or filtration, preserving the clarity of the Volnay terroir. The vineyards are farmed biodynamically, with a strong focus on biodiversity and minimal intervention.

Food & Serving
This elegant Premier Cru is best paired with dishes that complement rather than overpower its finesse: guinea fowl, quail, veal fillet, lightly roasted duck, veal sweetbreads, or refined preparations featuring mushrooms and truffle. It also works beautifully with classic Burgundian cuisine and mature soft-ripened cheeses. Serve at approximately 15–16°C. Decanting is not essential when young, though 30–60 minutes in a decanter can help the wine open; older bottles are best handled gently and decanted only if necessary to remove sediment.
