Description
The 3.76 hectares of this exceptional premier cru have a particular meaning for Bouchard P�re & Fils, since it was the first vineyard bought by the house in 1775. This wine was matured 12-14 months in French oak and is expected to show beautifully until at least 2029.

Tasting Notes
The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets Ancienne Cuv�e Carnot is already extremely charming, bursting from the glass with a lavish bouquet of cassis, dried rose petals, coniferous forest floor and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and satiny, with an elegantly textural attack, a nicely concentrated core of fruit and lively acids, concluding with a precise, vibrant finish. Drink date: 2020-2037. Score - 92. (Dr. William Kelley, robertparker.com, April 30, 2019)
