Volnay: The 'Feminine' Pinot

Burgundy's most delicate Pinot Noir appellation — wines so feminine they wear violets on their nose, Volnay contrasts hard with its "masculine" neighbors Pommard and Meursault.

What to do there

TourVolnay: The 'Feminine' PinotVolnay is called the 'Romanée of the Côte de Beaune' - delicate, perfumed, and traditionally described as 'feminine.' The highest village in the Côte de Beaune produces Pinot Noir of ethereal elegance. No Grand Crus, but Premier Crus like Caillerets rival any.
