Chavy-Chouet Volnay 1er Cru Sous La Chapelle is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Total acreage for this wine: 0.1 hectare (0.25 acres)Planting density: 10 000 vines per hectares
Age of the vines: 10 years
At the bottom of the slope in the heart of Volnay, this plot lies on clay-sand soil.
Volnay is located on the steep sloping hill of Chaignot in the Côte de Beaune, where the southeast facing vines have been valued for centuries. These vineyards have been valued and exploited for centuries. Long before the French Revolution, the harvests of Volnay went to the Knights of Malta, the Abbeys of Saint-Andoche d’Autun and Maizières, or to the Dukes of Bourgogne and their successors, the Kings of France.
Volnay has a reputation for being among the most delicate, feminine of the Bourgogne wines. Limestone soil dominates the area, with deeper, gravelly soils at the foot of the slope, where Chavy Chouet’s vines are located.
This Volnay is full of character; broad and fruity. Smooth and elegant tannins make it a feminine wine, marked by aromas of black berries and leather.
Review:
The 2023 Volnay 1er Cru Carelle Sous La Chapelle is completely destemmed and sees this estate's normal 12 months in 20% new barrels. It's a beautiful, spicy, open-knit Volnay that shines for its balance and suppleness. Ripe redcurrants, framboise, rose petals, and earthy, foresty nuances all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with supple, ripe, integrated tannins, good acids, and ripe, present tannins. It's beautifully done and just an absolute joy to drink even today. It should evolve gracefully over the coming decade. Drink 2025-2035.

G.D. Vajra Barolo Coste di Rose is made from 100 percent Nebbiolo.
The Coste di Rose is a very seductive wine right out of the gate. Cherries and roses burst on the nose, with hints of amarena, red hard candy, wild berries, wet stone, mint and thyme. The palate is radiant and expressive, with all of the signature elements of Coste di Rose in nice evi-dence: the ethereal character, the saline, up-front tannic structure, and further whiffles of roses and cherries in the finish.
G.D. Vajra is one of Barolo's most beloved family estates, farming organically in La Morra since the early 1970s and known for fragrant, high-toned, transparent Nebbiolo. Coste di Rose is one of the highest and coolest crus in Barolo, its sandy, well-draining soils yielding especially perfumed and graceful wines; the 2022 is a touch more structured and powerful than most.
Review:
Floral, as is typical of this estate, with crunchy red fruit and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied, with a blanket of delicate, tender fruit defined by chalky, precise yet silky tannins. Drinkable now with proper aeration, but will improve with some bottle age.

The G.D. Vajra 2022 Barolo Coste di Rose is taut and elegant, with a glossy surface that acts as a sounding board to aromas of rose petal, violet pastille, candied orange and cassis. Coste di Rose is one of the highest and coolest crus in Barolo, known for producing especially fragrant and graceful expressions of Nebbiolo. I love the sharpness of the wine and the way it treads lightly over the palate, although the 2022 vintage is in fact a bit more structured and powerful than most. Fruit comes from a 1.5-hectare parcel inside the Coste di Rose cru with a high percentage of well-draining sandy soils that contribute to the wine’s finesse.
