In Volnay, an appellation celebrated for its elegance and aromatic charm, this cuvée reveals a deep vermilion red color and a delicate bouquet of raspberry, blackberry, and violet.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the palate, it is refined and silky, with tannins of remarkable softness and elegant roundness, highlighting Volnay’s reputation for finesse.

Winery Background Les Parcellaires de Saulx, founded in 2017 and based in Meursault, is a modern Burgundy house conceived as a “haute couture” micro‑négociant. Unlike traditional large‑scale merchants, it focuses on sourcing grapes from carefully chosen parcels across the Côte d’Or, vinifying each climat separately to preserve its individuality.
The domaine emphasizes minimal intervention, small‑lot vinification, gentle extraction, and judicious oak use, ensuring purity and terroir transparency. With holdings across prestigious appellations from village wines to grands crus, it has quickly established itself as a producer of artisanal, terroir‑driven Burgundy.
