Score 91/100 · Drink 2023-2039, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Sep 2021

The 2019 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes is firmer and more austere, unwinding in the glass with scents of raspberries, plums and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, with chalky tannins and tangy acids, it will require a bit of patience.

The 2019 Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru has a tough time following from the more expressive Les Caillerets. This is very tight and contained, missing the same joie-de-vivre . The palate is medium-bodied with good grip and it is certainly the spiciest of Bitouzet-Prieur’s Volnay. Dark berry fruit tinged with tea leaf and bay, it meliorates towards the finish that feels harmonious and structured, though juxtaposing the two, the Les Caillerets has more charm.
