The estate and the wine |
|
|
A family of winemakers rooted in Burgundy since the 13th century, the Clerget family continues their heritage with heart and passion. Domaine Yvon Clerget is now led by Thibaud, who was trained around the world before returning to his native land for the 2015 vintage.
Carrying all the ambitions of the new generation, he produces wines of great depth, completeness, and expressiveness on 6 hectares, in total harmony with their terroirs: Meursault, Vougeot, Corton, Pommard, and of course, the beating heart of the estate, Volnay! |

| | |
|
From a micro-plot of 16 ares of 50-year-old vines, vinified with 50% whole bunches, the Volnay 1st Cru Les Mitants Red 2018 offers impeccable delicacy and smooth tannins, combined with the depth of Volnay. It's a unique wine with fabulous tension, good structure, chewiness, and a beautiful persistence. |
