Tasting notes
The 2023 Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru comes from a parcel where Girardin manages the vineyard themselves. This vintage includes 30% whole bunch. It offers a finely delineated mixture of redcurrant, wild strawberry and slightly darker fruit tones compared to the Les Pitures. Light incense aromas develop in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a succulent opening, displaying more precision and focus than the Pitures. It has admirable tension toward the finish with just a little heat on the aftertaste, but it's very minor. There's good potential here.
