Roger Belland - Volnay-Santenots 1er Cru 2009
Notes: Gault Millau 16/20
“A powerful Volnay. Cherry, raspberry, and potpourri make up a rich nose. The palate is full-bodied and very juicy. The tannins are well-integrated and round.” (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau). A truly beautiful expression of Pinot Noir!

About the estate:
An historic estate, first mentioned in the 18th century, now covering 24 hectares. At the helm are Roger Belland, who took over in 1981; his daughter Julie, who joined in 2003 and oversees winemaking; and their new partner, Martin Boyer. No certified organic production here, but sustainable and carefully managed viticulture (full vineyard cover cropping, no herbicides), and wines of great consistency.
