Domaine Yvon Clerget - Volnay 1er cru "Carelle sous la Chapelle" 2023

Domaine Yvon Clerget - Volnay 1er cru "Carelle sous la Chapelle" 2023This Volnay 1er cru "Carelle sous la Chapelle" is very refined. Thibaud Clerget took over the family Domaine in 2015; one of the oldest Domaines in the village. The rebirth of one of Volnays little treasures then began with six hectares of vineyards located within the best climats* of Burgundy. The vineyard of 1er cru Carelle sous la Chapelle is located just below the village of Volnay and its vines are 30 years of age on average. The nose is delicate

hence the yields of just 12hl/ha

with soft tannins that assert themselves on the finish

Striking finesse on the nose

Domaine Tessier is a rising star of Meursault’s producers

This wine can be enjoyed after a year of two of cellaring

A round and quite vibrant nose – there’s some cushion and an impression of barrel here – slowly the floral perfume also starts to make its presence felt

You can drink it now with a 30-minute decant before serving or cellar it up until 2025+
