ROBERT PARKER “The Volnay Les Fremiets Premier Cru 2016 is a refined and expressive example of Burgundy’s Pinot Noir. This vintage offers a fragrant bouquet of red cherries, raspberries, and violets, accompanied by subtle notes of earth and spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky texture, fine-grained tannins, and a well-defined structure. The 2016 vintage is noted for its balance and elegance, with a vibrant acidity that enhances its freshness and longevity. It is a wine that can be enjoyed in its youth but has the potential to develop further complexity with additional aging.”
