Tasting notes
With a beautiful ruby colour, its robe appears luminous and very intense. On the nose, a delicate scent of violets awakens the senses, followed by delicate aromas of red fruits (wild strawberry, cherry) and sweet spices. On the palate, its tannins are silky, velvety and elegant. Very charming, this Volnay is simply irresistible.
Food & wine pairing
Game birds and delicate meats are ideal partners for this Volnay: a young roasted guinea fowl or a veal haunch with morels will do it justice. It pairs well with mild cheese, such as Comté or Chaource.
