About this wine
Domaine Henri Boillot is a family-run winery located in the Burgundy region of France. Founded in the late 19th century, the winery has been producing wines for over a century. The winery is renowned for its Volnay wines, particularly the Les Fremiets 1er Cru.
This Volnay is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, grown in the limestone-rich soils of the Les Fremiets vineyard. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted before being fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels for 12 months before being bottled.
The resulting wine is a deep ruby red in colour, with aromas of ripe red fruits, spices, and earthy notes. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and well-balanced, with a silky texture and a long finish. The tannins are well-integrated and the acidity is fresh and lively.
This Volnay Les Fremiets 1er Cru is a classic Burgundy wine, with a complex and elegant character. It is a great accompaniment to a variety of dishes, from roasted meats to game dishes. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for up to 10 years for further complexity.
Experience the unique character of this Volnay Les Fremiets 1er Cru and savor the flavors of Burgundy. With its complex aromas and flavors, this wine is sure to delight your taste buds.
