The 2022 Domaine Jean-Marc et Thomas Bouley Volnay is a beautifully elegant red Burgundy that highlights the finesse and aromatic charm of this classic Côte de Beaune village. Crafted in a generous yet balanced vintage, it reflects the domaine’s signature style of purity and precision. The nose is lifted and perfumed, showing red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with floral notes, subtle spice and a hint of earth.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky, refined texture and fine, supple tannins. Bright red fruit flavours are supported by fresh acidity, leading to a smooth, graceful and lingering finish. The style is poised and approachable, emphasizing elegance over power.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great introduction to Volnay for customers who enjoy lighter, more perfumed Pinot Noir styles. It’s versatile, food-friendly and easy to appreciate, with enough depth to satisfy Burgundy enthusiasts. Drink now or over the next 5–8 years. Perfect with duck, roast chicken, pork or mushroom dishes.
