NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, it offers a bouquet of red fruits such as cherry, raspberry, and strawberry, accompanied by subtle floral notes and a touch of earthiness.On the palate, the Glantenay Volnay 1er Cru 'Santenots' showcases a harmonious balance between its fruitiness and its well-integrated tannins. The red fruit flavors persist, complemented by hints of spice, forest floor, and a delicate minerality. The wine displays a medium to full body, with a silky texture and a long, lingering finish.
This Volnay premier cru is a prime example of the finesse and elegance that Burgundy wines are renowned for. It can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to age gracefully for several more years, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve.
