The exquisite Bitouzet-Prieur Volnay Caillerets 1er Cru is a limited-edition masterpiece from the prestigious Bitouzet-Prieur estate. This remarkable red wine, crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, perfectly embodies the marriage of grace and power. With only 0.15 hectares dedicated to the production of this outstanding cuvée, availability is extremely limited, making each bottle a rare and treasured gem. Aged for 12-16 months in oak barrels and boasting an average alcohol content of 13%, this Volnay 1er Cru is truly a testament to the exceptional terroir and expert winemaking of Bitouzet-Prieur.
The Bitouzet-Prieur Volnay Caillerets 1er Cru greets the senses with an alluring bouquet of dark cherries, blackberries, and subtle floral notes. As you taste, the wine reveals its captivating character - a harmonious blend of elegance and intensity. The palate is enveloped in rich, velvety flavors with a beautifully round texture and excellent density. Fine, long tannins provide a firm backbone, while the wine's impressive depth and complexity shine through, culminating in a lingering, memorable finish.
The Bitouzet-Prieur Volnay Caillerets 1er Cru pairs exceptionally well with a wide range of dishes, highlighting its versatility and sophistication. Enjoy this enchanting red wine alongside succulent grilled meats, such as beef tenderloin or lamb chops, to complement its rich, bold flavors. For a more delicate option, pair it with pan-seared duck breast or a mushroom risotto to enhance the wine's earthy, savory undertones. Its elegance and complexity also make it an ideal match for a variety of soft and aged cheeses, such as Camembert, Brie, or Gruyere
pungent aromas of menthol and reduction precede dense, caressing and equally refined medium weight flavors that also flash an abundance of minerality on the strikingly long and complex finale. The inherent class of a fine Caillerets is on display and this too should age gracefully for a decade plus. Excellent.
