Domaine Y. Clerget - Volnay 1er Cru 'Carelle sous la Chapelle' Red 2022

Wine Region:Burgundy, France

Grape: Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes:
The vineyard of 1er cru “Carelle sous la Chapelle” is located just below the village of Volnay and its vines are 30 years of age on average.

The nose is delicate with profound notes of red fruits, rose petals and black fruits. The palate is refined and delicate with some candied fruits going through to the finish with ample energy and freshness.

Expert ratings:
Red berry fruit, violets and iris flower on the nose - this blossoms in the glass, a hint of vanilla in the background. The medium-bodied palate has fine-grain tannins and gentle grip. This is very elegant and pure, cohesive and silky on the finish. This is a gorgeous Volnay that will age with style.

92-94 points - Neal Martin, Vinous.
