2022 Volnay, Domaine François Buffet
This Volnay is floral and gently spiced, with layers of delicate aromatics. It comes from a blend of two parcels: the evocatively named Les Famines, whose paucity of soil makes the roots dig deep; and a small dash of the tiny lieu-dit, La Gigotte, which lifts this village wine up a notch. It’s entirely destemmed and the wine has a sapid, fruity, and accessible profile, with nicely grippy tannins.

Critic Scores
89-91/100 – Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

A mix of Famines, the ripest plot, and Gigotte, which brings some freshness. Incredibly dark by Buffet standards, with an opaque inky nose. Not quite sure what to make of this but the intensity is impressive and it does come across as fresh enough at the finish, and very persistent. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted: October 2023.
