2017 Domaine Y. Clerget Volnay 1er Cru Carelle Sous la Chapelle

Burghound (Allen Meadows) 91

"A deft application of wood frames a similar array of aromas though there is notably better complexity. The vibrant if slightly less dense medium weight flavors possess a highly sophisticated texture of lace and grace, all wrapped in a softly mineral-inflected finish. Textbook Carelle." (April, 2019)

Wine Advocate (William Kelley) 89-91

"The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Carelle Sous La Chapelle wafts from the glass with notes of red berries, spices, baking chocolate and dried flowers, gently framed by its 20% new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, deep and succulent, with an ample core of fruit and fine-grained, chalky tannins." (January, 2019)
