2023 Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Volnay 1er Cru Fremiet (750ml)

By Charles Curtis MW 2023 Burgundy EP, 10/17/2024, (See more on Decanter...)94 points (Domaine Marquis d'Angerville, Pinot Noir / Pinot Nero, Volnay, 1er Cru Les Fremiets, Burgundy, France, Red) The 2023 Frémiets from d'Angerville features a burst of blueberry and pomegranate fruit with a firm mineral underpinning. It has less tannin than I remember, but there is impeccable balance and weight. The grapes are from his 1.57ha holding at the northern edge of the premier cru band, up the slope from the Clos des Angles. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with native yeasts before ageing with a modest proportion of new wood to create this lovely, lively wine. (Drink between 2030-2050)
