In the classification published by Jules Lavalle in 1855, Les Mitans and En l'Ormeau appear in the first group of Volnay climats, the one headed by Caillerets and Champans. Here too only red wine is made, from Pinot Noir; you'll find the available bottles below.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"domaine-jean-marc-thomas-bouley-volnay-premier-cru-les-mitans-2023-075","title":"Domaine Jean‑Marc \u0026 Thomas Bouley Volnay Premier Cru Les Mitans 2023 AOC 0,75l","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eDomaine Jean‑Marc \u0026amp; Thomas Bouley Volnay Premier Cru Les Mitans 2023 AOC 0,75l is a wine that presents itself as a window into the heart of the Côte d'Or, where terroir-driven tradition meets a contemporary vision of winemaking; the bottle embodies the Bouley family's lineage, born from the alliance between Jean‑Marc and his son Thomas, a blend of experience gained among carefully tended vineyards and in a cellar where slowness is as much an aesthetic choice as a technical one; the producer's story is that of a family winery that has refined over the years a working method based on respect for the vine, hand harvesting, careful grape selection, and precise fermentation management, extracting elegance from the grapes without forcing them; the winemaking philosophy favors minimal intervention, precision in harvesting, and ageing that releases freshness, tension, and aromatic complexity, giving the wine a profile that remains faithful to the character of the region while opening up to contemporary nuances; Les Mitans, Premier Cru set on marl and limestone francoid soil, stands out for a structure that supports intense red fruit without overpowering the aromas; the exposure and controlled ripening allow for a balance between power and refinement, with tannins that caress the palate and a drinkability that invites further discovery; within the producer's range, this Volnay Premier Cru occupies a privileged position, serving as a benchmark for those wishing to discover how the Bouley signature can bring the biodiversity of the area to the glass: a wine capable of accompanying haute cuisine dishes or enhancing a thoughtful tasting, offering symmetry between floral aromas, subtle spice, and a minerality that evokes the limestone ramparts of the hills; notes of violet, ripe cherry, and bitter orange zest intertwine with hints of graphite and pepper, creating a sensory tapestry that evolves in the glass with a slow but inexorable progression; the finish remains long, polished, and persistent, with an elegant trail that invites another sip; the 0,75 l bottle represents the perfect format for those seeking quality and longevity within a terroir-focused range, offering the public the opportunity to understand, savoring one note after another, how a premier cru can tell the story of a land and a family.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Domaine Jean-Marc \u0026 Thomas Bouley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57359352365381,"sku":"DOMJEA-VOLPRECRUM-BOU-23-075","price":205.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/7376\/7237\/files\/Domaine-Jean-Marc-Thomas-Bouley-Volnay-Premier-Cru-Les-Mitans-2023-AOC-075l.jpg?v=1788874956"}],"url":"https:\/\/steltwines.com\/en\/collections\/volnay-premier-cru-les-mitans.oembed","provider":"STELT - Vini Pregiati \u0026 Champagne","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
