The 2021 Volnay Les Champans 1er Cru belts out of the glass with blackberry, raspberry and crushed stone aromas, the most vigorous of the Premier Crus at this juncture. Wonderful definition. The palate is harmonious, poised, and demonstrates more substance than the other crus with a slightly confit finish that lingers seductively. This could age magnificently - a victory in a challenging growing season that deserves a hearty applause.

The 2021 Volnay 1er Cru Champans is one of the standouts of the range this year, mingling aromas of dark berries and orange zest with notions of Indian spices and rose petals in an inviting bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, supple and sensual, with good concentration and an ample, fleshy mid-palate, it concludes with a floral finish.

With its charming plummy fruit accented with notes of spice, smoke, and a savoury element, this is nearly always among my favorite wines at d'Angerville. The 2021 version has charm, a bit more density, and a better length than other offerings here; with a lovely intensity and lingering finish, it is an elegant expression of the dedication to quality here.
