Domaine Marquis D‘Angerville

Domaine Marquis D`Angerville  consists  of  13.5  hectares  of  vineyards, which  includes  holdings  in  no  fewer  than  8 Volnay 1er crus and smaller holdings in Pommard and Meursault. Pride of place belongs to the 2.90 hectare monopole of Clos des Ducs in Volnay. Located on the southeast facing slopes to take full advantage of the morning sun, the soil is composed of chalk. This rocky soil absorbs the heat of the day and releases it at night to extend the growing season and lead to more maturity in the grapes. The steep slopes of the vineyards make for well drained soil on which the grape varieties (primarily Pinot Noir and Chardonnay) thrive. The grapes at d’Angerville are all hand picked and must pass a rigorous selection process before vinifcation and ultimately, ageing in oak casks. Today the wines are exemplary, and the key seems to be low yields, a high average vine age and a very judicious use of new oak in the élevage. The wines are remarkably long-lived and some of the most sought-after in the Cote D`Or.
