Chanson Pere & Fils Volnay 2018
Note From Tom: I tasted a few of their wines at a La Paulee event and they caught my attention standing out in a crowded field as well made classically styled wines. Based in the village of Beaune, this is a negociant domaine which means they purchase fruit from other growers to make their wines. Now, they also have PLENTY of their own vineyards they make wine from as well, particularly the not often seen monopole 1er vineyard Feves (a stand out in my tasting). Fast forward a couple weeks, a representative from Domaine Chanson conducted a tasting of their wines in our back yard in Raleigh. These are some of the first 2023s I have tasted, and I liked most of what I tried. The overall assessment was this was a very good vintage, a warm year like 2022 that produced balanced wines that retained freshness with very good acidities, with minerality and terroir authentic to site and appellation!
