Vintage Character Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Volnay Les Caillerets Premier Cru 2023 comes from one of Volnay’s most prized premier cru climats, where Pinot Noir reaches a particularly refined, stony expression. The 2023 vintage in Burgundy was generally successful, with a warm growing season and healthy fruit set delivering ripe flavours balanced by the freshness that careful picking preserved, making this an especially attractive vintage for the region. Les Caillerets is celebrated for its shallow, rocky soils strewn with limestone pebbles on the Volnay slope, a terroir that consistently gives wines of lift, finesse and marked mineral tension.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing The nose leans toward pure red cherry, wild raspberry, rose petal and violet, with subtle notes of spice, blood orange and crushed stone. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, fine-boned and precise, with silky tannins, vivid acidity and a long, tapering finish that combines floral perfume with savoury mineral grip. This is a Volnay of elegance rather than weight, and its layered texture makes it especially appealing with roast guinea fowl, duck breast with cherries, or seared tuna with sesame.
Winery Background Domaine Marquis d'Angerville is one of Burgundy’s reference-point estates, with a family history in Volnay dating back to the 19th century and a major role in championing estate bottling in the 1930s under Marquis Georges d'Angerville. Today, Guillaume d'Angerville continues that exacting vision with biodynamic farming, rigorous selection and a strong commitment to expressing each climat faithfully. Fruit is hand-harvested, fermented with a traditional Burgundian sensibility, and matured in French oak with restraint, allowing Caillerets’ signature elegance, transparency and site-specific character to remain at the forefront.
