Armand Heitz Volnay 1er Cru ‘Les Taillepieds’ 2022 Review
Les Taillepieds is a Premier Cru climat in Volnay that punches above its weight. The limestone-based plot is one of the most celebrated in the Volnay appellation, and Armand Heitz owns a small, nearly one-acre parcel. This wine takes a moment to open up, but after a few minutes in the glass you’re greeted by notes of ripe cherries, raspberries, cured tobacco, and smoke. The palate is focused, with rich, medium fruit and quenching acidity. It’s ready to drink now, but in a decade it will be legendary.
