Understanding Domaine Joseph Voillot, Volnay Premier Cru, Champans, Burgundy
Adopting a philosophy that prioritizes the harmony between vine and environment, Domaine Joseph Voillot practices meticulous viticulture, ensuring that each grape from the Champans vineyard expresses the singular qualities of this esteemed terroir. In the cellar, the Voillot family employs a careful, minimal-intervention approach including fermentation with natural yeasts specific to each vineyard plot to encourage precise terroir expression. This is followed by ageing in about 15% new oak, allowing the natural character and complexity of the Pinot Noir to shine through in the final wine. Domaine Joseph Voillot's Volnay Champans displays intricate red and black fruit, floral notes and a subtle earthiness, all enveloped in a silky, elegant structure. This wine has the potential for graceful ageing.
