Proprietors of world-renowned vineyards and wineries in Oregon and Burgundy, Ken and Grace Evenstad crafted Maison Evenstad to offer collectible and extremely limited wines that showcase the rich and diverse terroir found only in Burgundy.
This small Premier Cru vineyard is in the southern part of the Volnay appellation and features rich soils with high limestone content and alluvial sediment. This acclaimed vineyard produces ethereal and high-toned wines, composed of bright red fruit and floral aromatics.
The 2020 Maison Evenstad, Volnay Premier Cru Les Robardelles Pinot Noir is an elegant, structured wine with a velvety texture and notes of plum, sweet berry pie, and bramble with hints of dried male leaf. This wine is vibrant and luscious, with bright fruit on the nose and dark fruit on the palate. The silky yet firm tannins make it perfect for aging.
