The 2021 Château de la Crée, Volnay Premier Cru 'Clos des Angles' Pinot Noir charms with aromatic hints of dried flowers and a delicate minerality that echoes the limestone-rich soils of its vineyards. Aromas of boysenberry lead the way, indicative of its early ripening nature, while on the palate, flavors of molasses and black currant mingle seamlessly with the sweetness of pie filling, creating a jelly-like sensation unique to this vintage. Despite its fruit-centric mid-palate, the wine maintains a graceful balance, offering a silky-smooth texture, remarkable volume, and a precise delivery of fresh and vibrant fruit.
