Silky Volnay perfume leads the 2023 Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Champans, all lifted red and dark berries, violet and subtle spice over a gentle, earthy undertone. On the palate it feels poised and flowing rather than muscular, its fine yet insistent tannins and mineral streak giving shape to a long, savoury finish that promises real refinement with time in bottle. This is a particularly graceful, fresh-faced expression of Champans in a warm year, combining charm and depth without excess weight.

Volnay Champans Premier Cru from Domaine Marquis d’Angerville is one of the estate’s historic, benchmark Volnay 1er crus, sourced from a mid-slope “champ pendre” (“sloping field”) site with limestone-clay soils that naturally balance power and finesse. Made from old-vine Pinot Noir and farmed biodynamically, it typically shows a refined but muscular profile—perfumed red and dark cherry, florals and spice over a distinctly mineral, structured palate—producing an ageworthy wine often cited as an archetype of the appellation.
