Volnay Vieilles Vignes Joseph Voillot (Domaine) 2014

A family domain for five generations, Domaine Joseph Voillot, in Volnay, covers 10 hectares divided into 35 plots and 17 appellations, Volnay, Pommard, Meursault and Beaune. In 1995, Joseph Voillot retired and his son-in-law, Jean Pierre Charlot took over the reins of the domain. The latter is a scholar of oenology, a subject that he has taught for a long time in Beaune. The work in the vines and the cellar is traditional but everything is done well. In the vineyard, the soils are worked two or three times a year and in the winery, vinification is traditional and fragmented, with native yeasts and punching down. Élevage lasts between 16 and 18 months, with about 25% of new barrels. This domain is particularly well known due to the finesse and perfect balance of its wines.
