The Wine The Wine
France
Region:Burgundy - Volnay
This youthful Volnay is already drinking superbly well, showing expressive red fruit character, and is just starting to show the first stages of its evolution with a little earthiness. Winemaker Jean-Baptiste, through his love of the land his vines are planted in, seamlessly manages to transfer that into his cuvée's and his wines have exceptional purity, elegance and great intensity. We expect this bottling to reward cellaring, but it is most certainly approachable right away.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Jean-Baptiste Jessiaume
Based in Santenay, Jean Baptiste comes from a long family line intimately involved in wine, stretching back over 200 years. Jean-Baptiste collected the Young Burgundian Winemaker of the Year in 2012 at the age of 23, although his teenage years were spent in other verdant fields - football pitches! After a stint as head winemaker for a large Côte Chalonnaise Domaine, he finally set up on his own in 2019 and the selection closely echoes the offerings of his forebears 200 years ago.
"I enjoy making wines that I love to drink and share with friends and family and I'm always doing my best to be in tune with the land and trying to capture that in all my wines. This Volnay has lovely purity and a delicate and soft red fruited profile." - Winemaker, Jean-Baptiste Jessiaume.
