Producer

Domaine Joseph Voillot

This domaine has been producing wine now for five generations, but it is since the present owner, Jean Pierre Charlot, son-in-law of Joseph Voillot, took control that it has moved into the league of serious wine producers. The domaine consists of 10ha of vineyards, with holdings in the top vineyards of both Volnay and Pommard, including some prized sites in several 1er Crus. The grapes are partially destemmed and the wines matured in oak barrels (20-35% new) for 12-18 months.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of baked black hedgerow fruits on the nose and on the palate there is black cherry, smoked blackberry, spice, and a touch of menthol. Rich, dense and textured with excellent depth and concentration, this is a wonderfully appealing Pinot Noir that can be enjoyed immediately but will benefit from 2–5 years of cellaring.

Vinification

Handpicked, pigeage is done by hand, starting at twice a day for the first 6 days, then once a day thereafter. A maturation for 10 months in 2-10 year old barrels follows.
