Tasting notes
Mingling notes of plums and cassis with hints of wood smoke, spices, loamy soil and grilled meats, the 2019 Volnay 1er Cru Les Santenots is medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a layered core and a charming, seamless profile. This is very promising.

Cask sample. Pretty deep crimson with even a purplish tinge. Liquorice top note. Really alive in there with zest, concentration and sufficient acidity and tannin. A hint of leather in the texture. Quite a slow developer. (JR)
The 2019 Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru was completely destemmed. It has a very floral bouquet, this one offering more rose petals than the violets that adorn the Chevret. The palate is well balanced with sweet red cherries and spices on the entry, a very fine bead of acidity and a sensual, silky-smooth finish. Excellent.
