Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Volnay Premier Cru Champans – Volnay Premier Cru – Red – 2014:

 

The Epitome of Volnay: Domaine Marquis d’Angerville Champans Premier Cru

The Volnay 1er Cru ‘Champans’ from Domaine Marquis d’Angerville is a benchmark for fine Burgundy. Sourced from a historic Premier Cru vineyard (or ‘climat’) known for its iron-oxide rich soils, this wine embodies the perfect marriage of power and Volnay’s signature elegance. The estate’s commitment to biodynamic farming ensures a pure, transparent expression of this prestigious terroir.

Tasting Profile & Vineyard Excellence

• Nose: An enticing bouquet of crushed red berries, maraschino cherry, and wild raspberry, underpinned by subtle notes of damp earth, potpourri, and a hint of exotic spice.
• Palate: Silky and structured, the palate offers a generous core of fruit balanced by vibrant acidity and ultra-fine, integrated tannins. It possesses a ‘spherical freshness’ and a remarkable, long-lasting finish that defines collectible Pinot Noir.
• Cellaring Potential: Champans is known to be one of the Domaine’s most structured and age-worthy Premiers Crus, requiring 5-15 years to fully open and reveal its earthy complexity. It’s an essential investment for any serious cellar.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

Decant briefly if young, and serve at 60-64°F (16-18°C). The wine’s elegance and structure make it versatile, but it shines best with high-quality, complex dishes.
