Volnay

1er Cru Clos des Angles

Volnay 1er Cru "Clos des Angles" is a vineyard located at the corner of two tracks.

Vineyard

Located on the higher level, this well-exposed to South-East climat is generally early during the harvest. The brown limestone sloped soil is shallow. The style of the wine is fairly full-bodied, like Pommard, the neighboring village. Our cuvee is produced with the purchase of grapes from several small plots in this terroir.
