Domaine NICOLAS ROSSIGNOL Volnay 1er Cru "Cailleret" 2017

Domaine NICOLAS ROSSIGNOL Volnay 1er Cru "Cailleret" 2017Wine Region: Burgundy France Grape: Pinot Noir Tasting notes: "The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is one of the purest, most fragrant wines in the cellar, unfurling in the glass with aromas of rose petals and potpourri that mingles with sweet fruit tones of cherry and raspberry. On the palate, it's medium to full bodied, satiny and supple, with a lovely line of acidity, a fine grained chassis of tannin and a beautifully defined finish." William

About the winery:
Part of the fifth generation, Nicolas joined the family estate in 1994. After a few experiences in the four corners of France and South Africa, he created his own Domaine in 1997. Today, both Domaines are merged, representing 17 hectares and more than thirty appellations. Nicolas believes that the future of wine lies in innovation rather than sticking to the rules of the past. The vineyard is managed sustainably and also takes into account the lunar influence both for the work of the vine and for the development and ageing of the wines.
