En Carelle is a Volnay 1er Cru parcel that sits just below the village's famous 16th-century chapel, planted to roughly 45-year-old vines on well-drained, limestone-rich soil with southeast exposure. Mark O'Connell's Clos de la Chapelle, founded in 2011 in Volnay and farmed organically and biodynamically, has worked this site since the estate's early years; it gives a Volnay that is classically perfumed but with a little more flesh than the cooler 1er Crus higher up the slope. The 2023 leans into the vintage's bright, energetic profile: aromas of red cherry, cranberry, and crushed violets, with a touch of warm spice; the palate is medium-bodied and silky, with fine tannins, lifted acidity, and a finish that stays floral and pure. Already very expressive; built to evolve over the next decade.

"A more elegant, cooler and airier, even perfumed, nose is comprised by hints of rose petal, violet, red currant and a touch of exotic tea. The gorgeously textured medium weight flavors possess a silky mid-palate that contrasts markedly with the firm and somewhat grippy finale. This is certainly very pretty but the balance isn't completely dialed in."

More about Clos de la Chapelle

Owner/winemaker Mark O'Connell purchased this historic property in 2011. He has been purchasing more vineyards to add to the domaine ever since. When his wife would allow it. On one early visit she announced that he could not buy any more Grand Cru vineyards. I think he had just bought some Corton Charlemagne. I have been tasting these wines for 14 years. They have improved with each successive vintage. The domaine now owns 5 hectares of vines.

All along Mark has been guided by Pierre Meurgey, a fourth-generation wine trader, winemaker and vineyard owner. Burgundy is divided into many small vineyards. Pierre Meurgey has spent the last 35 years building an extensive network of landowners, vineyard managers, and winemakers. He knows everybody.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast squab, duck breast with cherries, beef tenderloin, mushroom dishes, or aged Comte. Volnay's perfume rewards quieter cooking; let the sauce play the supporting role.

Tasting Profile

Red cherry, cranberry, and crushed violet on the nose, with a touch of warm spice. The palate is medium-bodied and silky, with fine, well-knit tannins and lifted 2023-vintage acidity. Finishes floral, pure, and persistent.
