Red wineVolnay 1er cru "Les Caillerets" 2021 Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur
Bitouzet-Prieur : a compound name symbolizing the merger of two families of winegrowers:
Bitouzet on his father's side, a native of Volnay, Prior of Meursault on his mother's side, for the white wines
6th generation of winegrowers, François Bitouzet-Prieur arrived on the family estate in 2005 and has been managing it since 2012, maintaining this precious duality on an area of 13 hectares.
François is fortunate to cultivate an extraordinary plot of land that he has the responsibility to preserve. Vincent Bitouzet, François' father, had completely stopped the use of herbicides and other products harmful to the life of the soil in the 94-95 vintage, returning to mechanical maintenance of the soil by scratching and ploughing supplemented by an addition of organic ration in the form of compost. This approach was continued by François with a few trials in organic farming in 2009 and then implemented on the entire estate in 2013, for a certification of his 2023 vintage.
This Volnay 1er Cru "Les Caillerets" 2021 has a beautiful copper colour, a nose mixing fruit and spices and on the palate. It is a lovely wine full of grace and finesse (Meursault influence), with a nice balance, very melted tannins and a nice length. The acidity is still present despite ageing.
It is the perfect accompaniment to red meats in sauce and mature cheeses. For example, filet mignon, guinea fowl in salmis, duck with truffles or partridges with cabbage.
Capacity: 0.75 L
