The 2021 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru has a clean, lifted bouquet with red cherries, raspberry and bergamot scents that unfold in the glass. The palate has a little more flesh than its peers, well-judged acidity and a slightly meaty finish with a hint of pain d'épices. Moderate length. Give this a year in bottle to see what it can do. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru contains two-thirds whole bunches. This has a fragrant and floral bouquet with ample red fruit; the stems are supremely well assimilated. The palate is medium-bodied and showcases fine tension. It's linear and focused with a cohesive, slightly tertiary and persistent finish. Good potential.
