Premier Cru Volnay En Chevret Red Wine from Louis Billard – Aged Vintage

Louis Billard 2022 Volnay Pinot Noir
Crafted by visionary winemaker Louis Billard, this 2022 Volnay Pinot Noir captures the essence of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune through meticulous attention to terroir and tradition. Hailing from a family with five generations of winemaking expertise in La Rochepot near Meursault, Billard’s journey blends local heritage with global influence—shaped by stints at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and Georges Roumier in France, followed by pivotal experiences in South Africa and Australia’s By Farr Estate under Nick Farr.

Returning home with a deeper understanding of Pinot Noir’s potential across diverse climates, Billard focuses on purity of fruit and site-specific expression in every bottle. This Volnay exemplifies his philosophy: vibrant red berry aromas meet silky tannins, reflecting the limestone-rich soils of its Côte de Beaune vineyards while showcasing balance and elegance unique to Burgundy’s finest Pinot Noir regions.

Managing vineyards from bud break through harvest across celebrated appellations—from Saint-Aubin in the north to Vosne-Romanée in the Côte de Nuits—Billard harmonizes tradition with innovation. His hands-on approach ensures each bottle reflects its terroir’s distinct character while maintaining approachability for both current enjoyment or cellaring potential.

With 13.5% alcohol content and a refined profile, this limited-release wine appeals to connoisseurs seeking authentic Burgundy craftsmanship without compromise.
