Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Volnay Clos des Ducs 1er Cru 2023

Domaine Marquis d'Angerville’s Volnay Clos des Ducs 1er Cru is one of the most admired expressions of Pinot Noir from Burgundy, combining finesse, depth, and remarkable site-specific character. Clos des Ducs is a historic Volnay premier cru, long regarded as one of the appellation’s standout vineyards, and this bottling captures its signature balance of fragrance, structure, and elegance.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Volnay shows a poised, luminous ruby hue. The bouquet is layered and expressive, unfolding with red berries and cherry at the forefront, followed by peonies, warm spice, potpourri, and a subtle lift of orange peel. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, showing a fleshy yet precise texture with a deep, multidimensional core of fruit. Bright acidity keeps everything vibrant, while refined tannins frame the wine beautifully. The finish is long and saline, suggesting both immediate charm and excellent aging potential over the coming years.

Production
Clos des Ducs is a prized premier cru vineyard in Volnay, where limestone-rich Burgundy soils and a favorable hillside exposure help produce Pinot Noir with perfume, purity, and fine structure. Domaine Marquis d'Angerville is known for working its vineyards with great precision and respect for terroir, emphasizing careful harvesting and minimal intervention in the cellar to preserve freshness and transparency of site. The result is a wine shaped by both the vineyard’s pedigree and the domaine’s restrained, elegant vinification style.

Food & Serving
