The 2018 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru was picked at 20hl/ha due to widespread millerandage that produced tiny berries, according to Clerget. This is completely de-stemmed and raised in 30% new oak.

The 2017 Volnay is soft, open-knit and pliant, with lovely red berry fruit and floral character. Lifted, ethereal and gracious, the 2017 will drink nicely upon release.In Bond€741.00 -

Seeing no new oak, the 2018 Volnay Village comes from two parcels of around 50-year-old vines in Les Petits Gamets and Ez Echards that produce small berries. This has bold scents of blueberry and cranberry fruit on the nose, and just a faint touch of mulch in the background. The medium-bodied palate shows grainy tannins. Fresh and vibrant, with an enticing energy coiled up on the finish. This will be difficult to resist in its youth but will surely offer 15 years of enjoyment.In Bond€102.00 -
(6x75cl) 2021Vinous (89-91)
The 2021 Volnay Village comes from two parcels plus the frost-eviscerated Les Mitans, fully destemmed and matured in used oak. Lively red berry fruit mixed with shucked oyster shells on the nose, this has commendable focus. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins and fine depth for a Village Cru in this vintage with appreciable length.In Bond€529.00 -

The 2015 Volnay Santenots is a total rock-star wine. The personality of this site comes through beautifully in an ample, extroverted wine that also clearly has the shoulders to handle all of its natural intensity. Ripe red cherry, smoke, raspberry jam and lavender are some of the many nuances that develop, but above all else, the Santenots is a wine of balance and pedigree. Don't miss it.In Bond€465.00 -

Clerget's Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru is one of the more overtly ripe wines in the lineup. Kirsch, red raspberries, mint and wild flowers are all given an extra kick of raciness in the Santenots, a wine that really stands out for its nuance, suppleness and flat-out deliciousness.In Bond€297.00 -

The 2018 Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru comes from the lieu-dit of Les Santenots-Dessous and is completely de-stemmed and matured in 20% new oak. It has a slightly earthy and more introspective bouquet compared to Clerget’s other 2018 Volnays, but no less compelling; lovely, pure mulberry aromas almost reluctantly unfurl with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent tannins and a fine line of acidity. Quite strict and linear toward the Pommard-like finish, which delivers wonderful tension and good length. Cellar this for three or four years, because there is great potential.In Bond€372.00 -

The 2020 Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru contains 20% whole bunch with 20% new oak with zero pigeage, more like a infusion during the maceration. The nose sported a very slight reduction, dark berries, touches of loam and candied orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fleshy and ripe, quite grippy towards the finish where I would just like to see a little more tension.In Bond€105.00 -
