Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Volnay is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune with esteemed Premier Crus, producing elegant, perfumed and silky Pinot Noir reds prized for their finesse, delicacy and floral red-fruit character.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
