Volnay Domaine Vougeraie, 2022

Volnay is one of Burgundy’s most admired expressions of Pinot Noir, prized for its refined perfume, graceful structure, and understated power. From Domaine de la Vougeraie, the 2022 vintage brings a polished, terroir-driven style that reflects the finesse and elegance long associated with the appellation.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Volnay typically shows a bright ruby hue with a delicate, translucent edge. The bouquet leans toward red cherries, wild strawberries, rose petals, and subtle spice, often with a touch of earthy minerality that gives the wine depth and lift. On the palate, it is expected to be silky and precise, with fresh red fruit, fine tannins, and vibrant acidity shaping a long, graceful finish. While approachable in youth, it should also develop beautifully over time, gaining more complexity, savory nuance, and textural depth with a few years in bottle.

Production
Sourced from Volnay in Burgundy, the wine reflects the region’s cool-climate terroir, where limestone and clay soils help preserve freshness and define Pinot Noir with elegance and tension. Domaine de la Vougeraie is known for careful vineyard work and selective harvesting, aiming to capture purity of fruit and site expression. Vinification is typically carried out with an emphasis on balance and precision, allowing the character of the vintage and the appellation to come through naturally.

Food & Serving
This style of Volnay pairs beautifully with roasted duck, herb-crusted chicken, veal, mushroom dishes, and soft cheeses such as Brie or Époisses. Serve slightly cool, ideally around 15–16°C, to highlight its perfume and freshness. Decanting is optional for a young bottle, but a short aeration can help open the aromas.
