The 2021 Volnay Les Taillepieds 1er Cru possesses one of the most alluring bouquet from the Domaine this year a mélange of red and black fruit cold granite a touch of brine and a touch of undergrowth. Quite complex compared to other Premier Crus. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins tart red cherry intermixed with blackcurrant and touches of thyme and bay just tapering a little towards the finish. It will fill out by the time of bottling. (Drink between 2025-2040).
Supremely elegant nose with a core of concentrated ripe fruit. Mineral and chalky to finish. A very fine Volnay which will age effortlessly for many years. Domaine d'Angerville's plot of Taillepieds totals 1.07ha lying on weathered thin and rocky soils to the south of the village of Volnay. Extra altitude adds to the precision and finesse. (Drink between 2025-2036.
