Volnay AC

Wine information: The village of Volnay sits high above the Burgundian plain just a stones throw away from its neighbour Pommard From the villages square its possible to look across the region as far as the snow capped Mont Blanc. The wines are elegant and well-structured with delicate red and black fruits of the forest flavours and a floral bouquet said to resemble violets. Louis Latour Volnay undergoes traditional open vat fermentation followed by 10 to 12 months ageing in oak barrels. A traditional style Burgundy from the old school.

Tasting Notes: A delicious red Burgundy. Elegant aromas of cherry, blackberry and violets are folllowed by a medium bodied palate with structured yet elegant tannins and crispish acidity. Rounded berry fruits and hint of smoke are found on the palate. The finish is long and elegant.
