Domaine Jessiaume 2007 Brouillards Premier Cru (Volnay)

Country: France / Brouillards Premier Cru
Variety: Pinot Noir Burgundy
Winery: Domaine Jessiaume / Volnay

Does the vineyard name mean “foggy” as its etymology suggests? The wine certainly has a cool character for normally generous Volnay. But it is finely structured, the delicate tannins offering a balance to the more forward black fruits. There is a fine fresh, dry aftertaste.
