Domaine NICOLAS ROSSIGNOL Volnay 1er Cru "Chevret" 2017

Wine Region: Burgundy - France

Grape: Pinot Noir

Tasting notes: "The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Chevret offers up lovely aromas of dark chocolate, plums, cassis and rich soil. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and expansive, with a lavish attack that segues into a more tensile, firm mid-palate and finish." - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate

About the winery:
Part of the fifth generation, Nicolas joined the family estate in 1994. After a few experiences in the four corners of France and South Africa, he created his own Domaine in 1997. Today, both Domaines are merged, representing 17 hectares and more than thirty appellations. Nicolas believes that the future of wine lies in innovation rather than sticking to the rules of the past. The vineyard is managed sustainably and also takes into account the lunar influence both for the work of the vine and for the development and ageing of the wines.
