Francois Millet & Fils Volnay 1Er Cru Les Angles 2020
François Millet & Fils Volnay 1er Cru Les Angles 2020 is an elegant and finely structured Pinot Noir that perfectly reflects the refined character of Volnay. Produced by François Millet, the former cellar master of Domaine Comte Georges de VogĂŒĂ©, the wine showcases his philosophy of precision, restraint, and respect for terroir. The Les Angles vineyard sits near the border with Pommard, giving the wine slightly more structure and depth than many Volnay wines while retaining the appellationâs hallmark finesse.
The 2020 vintage offers expressive aromas of red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, violet, sweet spice, and subtle forest-floor nuances. On the palate, it is silky and layered, with vibrant red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and bright acidity framed by a mineral backbone. The warm growing season provided excellent concentration without sacrificing freshness, resulting in a wine of remarkable balance and purity. Notes of crushed berries, floral perfume, and delicate savoury complexity linger through a long, graceful finish.
Beautifully approachable with decanting, this Premier Cru Volnay also possesses the structure and harmony to evolve gracefully over the next 10â15 years.
