Directly from the wine estate
Terroir and Origin
Louis Jadot's Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Barre comes from a prestigious vineyard located in the commune of Volnay, in the Côte de Beaune. The clay-limestone soils, combined with ideal sun exposure, promote optimal ripeness of the Pinot Noir grapes and give the wine elegance, finesse, and structure. This historic terroir produces harmonious reds, typical of the delicate and refined expression of Volnay 1er Cru.
Winemaking and Aging
The grapes are harvested by hand and then carefully sorted to retain only the best berries. Fermentation takes place in tanks with gentle maceration to extract color, aromas, and structure while preserving finesse. Aging in oak barrels for approximately 15 to 18 months adds complexity, roundness, and aging potential.
Style and Tasting Notes
Volnay Clos de la Barre is distinguished by an elegant nose of red and black fruits—cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant—accompanied by subtle floral and spicy notes. On the palate, it reveals fine tannins, lovely freshness, and a harmonious structure. The long, silky finish makes it an ideal wine to accompany red meats, roast poultry, or refined gourmet dishes.
