91-93+ WA
The Domaine was founded in 1971 by Pierre Morey, son of Auguste Morey, who farmed several parcels for Domaine Comte Lafon under métayage agreement. For two decades, Pierre also served as vineyard and winery manager for Domaine Leflaive. During this time he was inspired to convert his estate to organic viticulture in 1992 and biodynamic in 1997.
The 2020 Volnay 1er Cru Les Santenots mingles aromas of cherries and berries with notions of creamy spices and rose petals in a rich bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, ample and concentrated, it's rich and layered, with lively acids and a long, expansive finish.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
