This is Volnay Premier Cru from soil you could pick out of a lineup: deep, dark red from all the iron in it, and strewn with big round rocks the locals call têtes de mouton, or "sheep's heads." Nicolas Rossignol's Santenots comes from the Santenots du Bas, level on the hillside with the Ronceret, and the plot changes shape as it goes, starting on a gentle slope, breaking in the middle and finishing flat. His 2.10 hectares hold vines planted in the 1920s, '50s, '70s, '90s and 2000s, so the oldest roots here have been digging into that red earth for about a century. Rossignol is the fifth generation of his family to grow grapes in Volnay and has made the family's wine since 1994. He farms using organic and biodynamic methods. A 2010 with this much time in bottle is a rare chance to see what a serious Volnay site does with age, so open it with dinner in mind and give it time in the glass.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken with morels or a mushroom cream sauce; seared duck breast with cherries; coq au vin; pheasant or guinea fowl; aged Comté.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Volnay 1er Cru profile with a little extra muscle: red cherry, raspberry and darker plum fruit, lifted by floral, earthy and faintly mineral notes. Santenots typically brings more depth and firmer tannin than the silky Volnay norm, with fresh acidity and a long, savoury finish. Think Volnay's perfume with a touch of Pommard's grip.
