Clos d`Audignac is a Volnay Premier Cru vineyard located at the southern end of Volnay village itself. The 1.1-hectare vineyard is a monopole of Domaine de la Pousse d`Or, and relatively well-known in its own right. The 2009 vintage is a little restrained at first, but it explodes on the palate with notes of cherries, plums, liquorice, and crushed stones. The depth is outstanding, and the finish is persistent.

Vinous
Good deep ruby-red. Very closed but pure nose hints at black cherry, dark berries, licorice and mint. Dense, lush and sweet, with strong fruit intensified by serious inner-mouth energy. Showing less early personality than the Caillerets or Clos de la Bousse d'Or but this is still quite primary. Finishes with very broad, suave, mouthdusting tannins and a medicinal quality. Very promising for this cuvee, from vines facing northeast.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2011
