Product details
Domaine Marquis d’Angerville is a historic Burgundy estate that holds exclusive rights to Clos des Ducs—a monopole vineyard just above Volnay. Under the leadership of Guillaume d’Angerville, the estate transitioned to biodynamic farming, cultivating fruit with striking purity, structure, and vibrancy. The 2019 vintage reflects this dedication with its depth, precision, and graceful tension. As the flagship creation of the Domaine, Clos des Ducs occupies a class of its own—firm yet refined, complex yet harmonious, and crafted from a unique 2.15-hectare plot whose expression is unmatched in Volnay.
The aromatic profile is aristocratic and layered: vivid red and black fruits—cherry, plum, and raspberry—intertwine with violet florals, earthy undertones, and mineral accents. On the palate it combines richness and finesse, offering both amplitude and definition, with lively acidity and finely woven tannins. Built to age, it evolves slowly in bottle, achieving a rare fullness and elegance after ten years or more, while the greatest vintages often demand additional patience. This is a wine of volume, distinction, and enduring character—a true benchmark of Volnay.
