Volnay Premier Cru Clos des Angles red 2009 75cl

197135

This Premier Cru embodies all the distinction and elegance for which the great terroirs of Volnay are renowned. Situated at the foot of the hillside on brown limestone soils, the "Clos des Angles" produces wines of great aromatic finesse. Selected by Le Delas from the 2009 vintage — a sunny year of exceptional ripeness in Burgundy — this bottle now offers a fully developed complexity and remarkably silky tannins, making it a perfect choice for prestigious wine lists. Food pairings, serving and storage: ► Sensory experience: The 2009 vintage boasts a deep ruby colour with slightly evolved highlights. The nose offers an intense bouquet of ripe red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant) evolving into notes of violet, undergrowth and sweet spices. On the palate, there is a perfect balance between the vintage's fleshy roundness and the elegant structure characteristic of a Premier Cru. ► Food and wine pairings: Its delicate structure makes it the ideal companion for tender, flavourful meats. It pairs brilliantly with duck fillet with cherries, veal loin with morels or roast partridge. It also pairs beautifully with creamy cheeses such as Brillat-Savarin or Cîteaux. ► Serving: For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine between 15°C and 16°C. As it is at an advanced stage of maturity, gentle aeration in the glass is sufficient to release its tertiary aromas; decanting is not necessary so as not to overwhelm the finesse of the Pinot Noir. ► Storage: This 2002 vintage is currently at its peak. To preserve its qualities until serving, store the bottles horizontally in a cool, well-ventilated cellar, away from light and vibrations. Location in store: Epicerie fine
