Lot presentation

Volnay 1er Cru Les Lurets Camille Giroud (Domaine) 2015

The wine

The vines are located to the south of Volnay and are exposed to the east in a pebble and well-drained soil. Maison Camille Giroud here presents an elegant and refined Volnay that develops aromas of ripe strawberry and gentle spices. The palate is at once velvety and fresh. Its tannins are firm and its finish quite austere. A wine to be aged in the cellar.

About the Producer Camille Giroud

Created in 1865 by the Swiss Camille Giroud, the Maison was originally a trading house which only began to buy its own vines in 1990. In 2001, some American enthusiasts named Colgin, purchased the domain and maintained its international success. Native to the Loire valley, their oenologist David Croix wanted to maintain this micro-trading business. Nowadays his place has been taken by Carel Voorhuis. The wines produced are popular due to their elegance, balance and the right choice of grape maturity and élevage.
