Volnay 1er Cru Santenots Dominique Laurent 1999

The wine

This Volnay expresses itself with very fruity notes (black berries) and tertiary aromas. The odd vegetal touch lends it a welcome freshness. It has a silky yet vivacious substance. Its great aromatic persistence will make it an ideal partner for a quality cut of meat. However, a simple dish is the best choice to enable this wine to reveal itself in full.

About the Producer Dominique Laurent

Having acquired a real reputation with the wines from his trade, since 2006, with the help of his son, Dominique Laurent has also created a small producer-farming establishment from vineyards leased to a winemaker of Vosne-Romanée. He does not deal with vinification but élevage and bottling. Nevertheless, he supervises vinification. The father and son like to work grape musts that have not been destemmed and to mature their wines without sulphur. They use new barrels, the signature of the maison. Dominique Laurent's entire range of wines is characterised by a high degree of purity and to be accessible to all ages. This recipe has proved its worth to fans all over the world.
