“I must admit that the 2022 Volnay Les Santenots 1er Cru is a small cuvée; I did not know Esmonin produced. There are three barrels this year. It has a pure bouquet, the oak very discretely used, and more red fruit than the Clos Saint-Jacques. The medium-bodied palate has a sorbet-fresh entry, a vein of orange zest embroidered through it with a ripe, energetic finish lingering in the mouth. Very fine.” – Antonio Galloni 90-92 Points
