NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Volnay Premier Cru from Joseph Drouhin is a beautiful expression of the Burgundian terroir, with a bouquet of intense red fruit and violet aromas, and a palate of ripe dark cherry, savory herbs, and a hint of smokiness.The finish is long, elegant, and delicate, with a lingering note of earthy minerality. A classic example of Volnay Premier Cru.
