Volnay Domaine Georges Glantenay

This elegant Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune is soft and refined, with ripe raspberry fruit, bright acidity and a touch of peppery spice framed by fine, chalky tannins, a beautiful choice to open at Christmas.

Domaine Georges Glantenay is a family-run estate, led by Sarah and Guillaume Glantenay, farming around eight hectares across Volnay, Pommard, Chambolle-Musigny, Monthélie and Meursault. The wines are made with a focus on purity and balance: grapes are almost entirely destemmed, fermented with natural yeasts, and given a gentle cool maceration. Village wines typically see around 20% new French oak, while premiers crus have closer to 30%, bringing subtle structure and finesse. Since 2018, the wines have been bottled without filtration to preserve character and depth.

The result is a silky, beautifully balanced Volnay that combines freshness with complexity, offering immediate charm while also rewarding a few years of ageing, a wonderful bottle to bring to the table this Christmas or to lay down as a gift.
