The 2015 Volnay Poux Bois (which is the name of the lieu-dit in case you were wondering) replaces the Les Grands Poisot after the contract ended. The soil here is calcareous rather than clay. It has a lovely red cherry, kirsch and slightly saline bouquet that leans a little towards Pommard in style. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, nicely structured with a slightly austere, mineral-driven finish.

Makes four barrels. From high vineyards up by the woods, so different from the previous Volnay. First time he's ever used 10% whole bunch. Lively and fresh. Racy and bracing. Big and crunchy. Lovely stuff – very transparent. (JR)
