The 2022 Vincent Girardin Volnay 1er Cru Champans is an elegant Burgundy Pinot Noir showing red cherry, raspberry and cranberry with violet, subtle spice and gentle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely structured, with bright acidity, silky tannins and layers of red fruit, savoury spice and mineral character. The finish is dry, refined and persistent.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Pinot Noir drinkers who enjoy fragrant, finely structured Premier Cru Burgundy. Best enjoyed over the next 7–12 years. Pair with duck breast and cherry jus, roast quail, porcini risotto or herb-crusted veal.
