"Clear pale colour. The bouquet is strongly in the fresh apple mode with some riper plum fruit lurking behind. Quite strong acidity, no shortage of fruit, this will need some time to come together. Some orange blossom and fresh quince now showing. Tasted: October 2021" - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

A unique site that, depending on the grape variety, shares the designation of 1er cru with its neighbor, Volnay. The plot is located north of the village of Meursault, between Meursault and Volnay, and the soil, very marly, lends itself to both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Domaine Marquis d'Angerville has a beautiful plot of 1.05 hectares planted with Chardonnay since 1905, originally by Sem d'Angerville, who wanted to vinify a white premier cru. Made without excessive battonage to give extra energy and tension.

At just under 17 hectares of some of the greatest vineyards in Volnay, three generations of d’Angervilles have been producing wines that in the words of Clive Coates are “exemplary: pure, terroir specific, elegant and intense.”
