Bastian Wolber 'Laisse Tomber' Volnay 2023

Bastian Wolber 'Laisse Tomber' Volnay 2023 Bastian Wolber “Laisse Tomber” Volnay 2023 is an elegant, finely framed Pinot Noir that captures Volnay’s signature grace, perfume and silky structure. It is a premium, artisanal Burgundy with a refined, lifted character and a distinctly sophisticated appeal. Site & Identity Volnay is one of the Côte de Beaune’s most celebrated villages for wines that favor finesse over force, with an emphasis on floral aromatics, supple texture and a graceful mid-palate. In this cuvée, that classic identity is likely expressed through Bastian Wolber’s low-intervention style, preserving clarity, freshness and vineyard nuance. The result is a wine that feels poised, transparent and quietly luxurious. Technical Tasting Note Appearance: Bright ruby with a luminous, transparent core. Nose: Red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, violet, rose petal, subtle spice and delicate earthy notes. Palate: Dry and silky, with fresh acidity, fine tannins and a precise, elegant core of red fruit. Finish: Long, refined and savory, with a floral-mineral close and a graceful fruit echo. Winemaking & Style The “Laisse Tomber” philosophy suggests a restrained cellar approach that allows the vineyard to speak clearly. In Volnay, that typically translates into a wine of perfume, lift and texture rather than overt weight or extraction. The 2023 vintage should bring freshness and definition, while still offering enough structure for medium-term aging and development. Food Pairing Excellent with duck, roast chicken, veal, quail, mushrooms and refined charcuterie. It also pairs beautifully with elegant bistro dishes and earthy vegetarian cuisine.
