Volnay Wines
If you ever have the privilege of visiting the commune of Volnay, you may leave forever changed. The veritable oceanic expanse of grapevine rows is truly breath-taking, a sight straight out of classic fantasy novels. The chirping birds sing of this region’s majesty, and that song echoes within the consistently glorious reds they produce. If this is the first time you’re sampling a bottle of Volnay, take a deep breath, and prepare to have your life changed.
Without a doubt, these wines are some of the most feminine in the entire surrounding area. Their fresh, seductive aroma will leave you infatuated for days on end, long after the initial passionate kiss. Expect to long for the sweet caress of violets, juicy cherries and gooseberry, as the spices and prune echo in your mouth, making your tongue shiver. No one can sample these amazing wines and remain neutral, as even the harshest critics will be taken aback by the texture and mouth-watering flavor combination, stunned and perplexed.
We would completely understand if you wanted to own dozens of Volnay bottles after just one sampling, one romantic fling with the excellent grape nectar of this appellation. To that end, we’ve prepared a selection of amazing, stand-out Volnay reds for your perusal, so that you may rediscover your love of wine in a very visceral, emotional way. Feel the butterflies in your stomach again as the wine tugs at your heartstrings, and dazzle your friends and romantic partners. No collection is complete without a little Volnay, and these bottles will be talked about for decades to come. Essential.
