Volnay Taillepieds Bitouzet Prieur 2016 is crafted by Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur, a union of the distinguished Bitouzet and Prieur families, known for their premium vineyards in Burgundy. This wine originates from the Taillepieds Premier Cru, notable for its limestone-rich soils, which impart distinct minerality. The winemaking process involves de-stemming the grapes, with limited new oak influence. Aromas of bright red fruits, primarily red currant, intermingle with subtle earthy notes. On the palate, expect a deft balance of tartness and delicate texture, offering a glimpse into the finesse of Volnay`s terroir.

The 2016 Volnay Taillepieds 1er Cru has a crisp raspberry and cranberry scented bouquet, nicely integrated oak, subtle floral aromas evolving with aeration. Delightful. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly confit-like opening, crisp acidity with a strict, bitter-edged red fruit finish that just needs to muster more finesse and persistence. Not bad and better than their Clos des Chênes, but could be better. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting in Burgundy.Neal Martin1st October 2019
