Michel Lafarge's village Volnay is a blend of several parcels across the appellation, farmed organically and biodynamically with the same rigor the family applies to their grand cru and premier cru holdings. Hand-harvested, largely destemmed, and aged in mostly neutral barrels, the 2022 delivers real purity and freshness: bright red cherry, raspberry, and violet on the nose, with a silky, elegant palate, fine tannins, and a long, precise finish. A benchmark expression of village-level Volnay — refined and true to the appellation's reputation for delicacy over power.

"Spicier aromas of poached plum, dark currant, violet and a hint of crushed fennel are rimmed in more subtle wood influence. Once again there is a really lovely texture to the more mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess a caressing mouthfeel, all wrapped in a firm, punchy, lightly austere and equally well-balanced finale. Lovely and understated."
