Domaine Georges & Pierre Glantenay Les Brouillards, Volnay Premier Cru, France 2022

A beautifully expressive Premier Cru from the Glantenay family, whose roots in Burgundy winemaking stretch back generations. Les Brouillards comes from approximately 70-year-old Pinot Noir vines growing in limestone-rich clay and marl on the Pommard side of Volnay, giving the wine a little extra structure beneath its signature elegance. The 2022 vintage offers lifted aromas of rose petals, violet, ripe cherry and blackcurrant, accented by subtle spice. On the palate, vibrant fruit meets chalky minerality, fine-grained tannins and lively freshness, building toward a long, savory finish. Aged in French oak, this is a compelling expression of Volnay that balances floral finesse with depth and age-worthy structure. A beautiful Burgundy for collectors seeking the character of a serious Premier Cru without sacrificing elegance.
