Volnay, Taillepieds, 1er Cru, 2022

justerini & brooks tasting note

An extremely lifted, floral and elegant Taillepieds, fully whole bunch fermented, but clearly very gently handled. Transparent in style, with plenty of elongated tannic finesse. Intense, yet high toned, with salty red berries over typical Taillepieds minerality. Top notch. Taillepieds has gravelly topsoil over limestone resulting in a tight-grained powerful wine. These are the domaine's oldest Volnay vines at 80 years old.

critic reviews

91-93/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2022 Volnay Les Taillepieds 1er Cru has the ripest bouquet of the Volnay cuvées - red cherries and wild strawberries, the 100% whole bunches, very well enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with finely chiseled tannins. A nimble Volnay that is light on its feet with a precise finish. Very fine.
