With its deeper colour and riper aromas of mulberry and pomegranate, the Vendanges Selectionées bottling is a marked step up from the regular village Volnay. The grapes come from four lieux-dits clustered in the centre of the village, touching the premiers crus; they are destemmed and gently fermented on native yeasts before ageing in cask with a tiny proportion of new wood (8%). The result has more tannin and chewiness. There is still a thread of nervous acidity that helps carry the wine to a winningly long finish. The Vendanges Selectionées is no ordinary village-level wine and merits a couple of years in bottle before opening.
