The Volnay 2016 from Domaine Michel Lafarge embodies the clay-limestone terroir of Volnay. This Pinot Noir, aged in oak barrels, offers notes of cherry and a taut, mineral texture. Perfect until 2030, it pairs with game and refined dishes with precision.
A family estate rooted in the hillsides of Volnay, where Burgundian tradition has been passed down for two centuries.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of the Côte de Beaune, the birthplace of Burgundy's most elegant Pinot Noirs.
- Winemaking: Organic methods and aging in oak barrels, yielding wines of mineral purity and rare tension.
Tasting notes for Domaine Michel Lafarge Volnay 2016
To the eye: A deep ruby robe with garnet reflections, of a silky and luminous texture.
On the nose: Aromas of black cherry, violet and undergrowth, lifted by a hint of liquorice and a subtle chalky minerality.
On the palate: A velvety attack, lively acidity and fine tannins, carried through to a saline finish with persistent length.
Serve between 14 and 16°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2016
A vintage defined by balance, where freshness and maturity combine to produce wines of exceptional precision.
- Aging potential: Best enjoyed until 2030; store in a cool, humid cellar away from light.
