The estate and the wine |
|
|
A winemaking family deeply rooted in Burgundy since the 13th century, the Clergets continue their legacy with heart and passion. For nearly a decade, Domaine Yvon Clerget has been led by Thibaud, the family's brilliant progeny who performs exemplary work here.
With intelligence and patience, this exceptional winemaker crafts from 6 hectares of vines wines that are rich, complete, and expressive, perfectly in tune with their terroirs: Meursault, Vougeot, Corton, Pommard, and of course, the heart of the domaine, Volnay! |

Born from very old vines over 75 years old (the oldest of the estate) on a highly calcareous terroir, the 2018 red Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets resonates uniquely. Always on the edge, intense, and refined, it's powerful without being excessive, deep, edged with fruity aromas and spices. The crunchiness and freshness of the soil pierce through here, balancing this robust wine. Magnificent! Rated 93+/100 by Parker. |
