Bouchard Père & Fils - Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru Domaine 2022
90-92/100
Robert Parker
"An iconic and exclusive Volnay Premier Cru, generous and elegant."
This First Growth wine with a ruby color combines richness and generosity on the nose, without losing any of the elegance and finesse of Volnay. The palate is rich and concentrated, with excellent aging potential. The name of this Climat comes, as its name suggests, from an ancient oak forest that disappeared long ago.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide) 4 stars (Producers of very high quality, those who are the pride of French vineyards)
About the estate:
From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this large Beaune-based wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots covering 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of premier and grand cru vineyards. This first-rate wine-growing heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who was previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce around 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year, with most of the production coming from purchased grapes for the great reds and carefully selected musts for the whites other than those from the estate. Impressive success in both white and red wines in recent vintages.
