From the producer: 

Geography : At the bottom of the foothill, under the 1ers crus Clos des angles and Chevret.
Soil and environment : Deep chalky and clayey soil set on a chalk layer. Very few stones giving the soil its light and brown color.
The vine : Blend of different plots Les Buttes, Les Grands Champs, Les Famines, Les Lurets (from 10 to 60 years old).
The wine : The wine is fruity and charmer. The tannins are soft and round with a lot of silk. Really good balance. Drink now.

A 5th generation winemaker in his family, Nicolas Rossignol is a perfect example of how a newer generation of vintners in Burgundy have brought tradition and knowledge from the past into the future. To better understand vinification after his studies, he worked at various wineries you may have heard of such as Louis Latour, Vieux Telegraphe, and and Chateau Cardonne, as well as Domaine Boschendal in South Africa. He returned to Burgundy in 1994 and now produces exceptionally beautiful wines in Volnay and Pommard by balancing the elegance and power of all his different vineyards.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 91
"Spicy, cool and perfumed aromas include those of ripe red and dark raspberry, violet and lavender. The sleek, refined and highly energetic flavors exude a subtle minerality on the balanced and solidly persistent finish. This is very Volnay in character and worth checking out." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 90
"The 2019 Volnay Village comprises five different vineyards, four on clay and the other on white soils, all vinified separately. The well-defined bouquet offers mulberry and black plum and touches of marmalade in the background. The palate is succulent on the entry with supple tannins, and fleshy, as a Volnay ought to be; a touch of white pepper emerges toward the finish. Fine." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 91
"Rossignol's 2019 Volnay Village derives from five parcels: four situated just below the premiers crus and one high on the slope. Wafting from the glass with scents of wild berries, petals, raw cocoa and forest floor, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and succulent, with bright acids, fine tannins and a saline finish." -Robert Parker
