Volnay Pitures1er cru
Maison Morey Blanc
- Vin Rouge- Classement : 1er cru
- Cépage : Pinot Noir
- Millésime : Depuis 2018
Le climat Pitures (Dessus) est situé en milieu de coteau dans un sol assez froid, tout proche du village en partant en direction de Pommard, et jouxtant le célèbre monopole Clos des Ducs.
Tout en gardant la finesse des Volnay, le rapprochement géographique de son illustre voisin Pommard confère à ce vin une structure assez charpentée avec des arômes fleuris de pivoine et de violette et aussi des notes légèrement anisées très rafraichissantes.

Notes de dégustation
Burgundy Report – Bill Nanson 2022-06
“Bought in grapes. On the hill. This the third vintage for this
Wider, a textured width, some stony fruit. Mouth-filling but still wide flavours with a fine fresh mineral energy here – cooling the flavour. Grainless tannin in support. A much more complete wine than the Meursault. That’s Very good !”

Bought in grapes, second vintage. On the hill.
“Classically and beautifully floral accented – that’s super. More structural, but with energy, with depth of flavour too – chiselled. Very dark finishing, almost a licorice here but super, forceful, properly structured wine. Excellent !”
The Wine Advocate – William Kelley 2021-01 91-93 pts
“Notes of peonies, raspberries, plums and spices, complemented by a delicate hint of raw cocoa, introduce the 2019 Volnay 1er Cru Pitures, a medium-bodied, lively wine that’s mineral and precise, with a fine-boned, elegant profile. This is another beautiful wine from Anne Morey.”

“The sophomore 2019 Volnay Les Pitures 1er Cru has a very floral bouquet of violet scents infusing the mixture of red and blueberry; fine delineation here. The palate is well balanced and defined, slightly grainy in texture and quite spicy on the firm finish. There is a broodiness to this Volnay that I actually quite like, but it might need longer in bottle before reaching its drinking window.”

A new wine here.
Hmm – a lovely nose again – a little more floral – the wines are singing here this morning. Finer structured – open, a nice line of flavour – I love the open nature of this wine. Very broad finishing – ooh this is sappy/vibrant and delicious – excellent wine !

The 2018 Volnay Pitures 1er cru is a new addition to Morey-Blanc, purchased fruit that amounted to five barrels this vintage. It has an attractive bouquet, a melange of red and black fruit with a discreet marine influence, nicely integrated with the oak. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a slightly lactic texture. This is very fruit-driven, juicy and probably destined to be quite approachable once in bottle. Very fine.
