Domaine Yvon Clerget - Volnay 1er cru "Clos des Angles" 2023
This Volnay 1er cru "Les Angles" is very pronounced and balanced.
Thibaud Clerget took over the family Domaine in 2015; one of the oldest Domaines in the village. The rebirth of one of Volnay’s little treasures then began with six hectares of vineyards located within the best climats* of Burgundy. The vineyard of 1er cru “Les Mitans” is located just below the village of Volnay and its vines are 30 years of age on average.
Clos des Angles is one of the new vineyards from Domaine Regis Rossignol, not officially domaine in 2023 though all will be in 2024. 50% whole bunch vinification, no barrel, just two wine globes. Paler colour, fresh ruby, a fine racy nose, herbaceous in a good way, very fragrant. Graceful across the palate, good acidity, less depth, a bonier style of Volnay. Really charming. Drink from 2029-2035. 91-93 points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy.
