Domaine Yvon Clerget - Volnay 1er cru "Brouillards" 2024

This Volnay 1er cru "En Bouillard" is very finely structured with an elegant finish.

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.

The 2024 Volnay En Bouillard 1er Cru is the first year under the Domaine label: 25% whole bunch with 50% new oak from two barrels. This has quite a full nose with raspberry and crushed strawberry fruit, a little confit in style, fine delineation and quite generous in the context of the vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins, taut and fresh, quite elegant and understated with plenty of transparency on the finish. Promising. 90-92 points - Neal Martin, Vinous.

100% Pinot Noir
