2016 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes, Maison Roche de Bellene
£62.00
“The vineyard sits at the top of the premier cru slope in Volnay. It has produced a richly structured wine for this village, full of tannins as well as concentration. Plenty of generous black cherry fruit go with this structure. It is a wine for aging, ready to drink from 2024.”
