Domaine Ami Volnay 2020
Burgundy wine Volnay
Good bright red-ruby. Pure, showy aromas of wild dark berries, espresso and violet. Conveys a powerful impression of energy, elegance and power, with superb intensity to the black fruit, spice and mineral flavors. Impressively vibrant, with late-emerging notes of bitter chocolate and meat.

"As it was from barrel, this remains the coolest and most reserved nose in the range with ultra elegant, pure and airy aromas of primarily blue and black fruits that exude background notes of a fine spiciness and violets that lead to austere, minerally and linear flavors that possess ample mid-palate sap that coats and stains the palate before finishing with a flourish. This is a classic Reignots that is focused like a laser and while the flavors are not especially big, they carry a disproportionate impact. Terrific." (2009)

The 2021 shows a nose of white flowers, citrus and nashi pear, with a hint of oyster shell. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and chiselled, carried by bright acidity
Domaine Bertheau
Les Amoureuses
The beautifully layered nose offers another small step up in elegance and a large step up in aromatic complexity and spiciness to the essence of red pinot fruit and intense floral influence
