Domaine Clos de la Chapelle, Volnay 1er Cru En Carelle, 2023
En Carelle is a Volnay 1er Cru parcel that sits just below the village's famous 16th-century chapel, planted to roughly 45-year-old vines on well-drained, limestone-rich soil with southeast exposure. Mark O'Connell's Clos de la Chapelle, founded in 2011 in Volnay and farmed organically and biodynamically, has worked this site since the estate's early years; it gives a Volnay that is classically perfumed but with a little more flesh than the cooler 1er Crus higher up the slope. The 2023 leans into the vintage's bright, energetic profile: aromas of red cherry, cranberry, and crushed violets, with a touch of warm spice; the palate is medium-bodied and silky, with fine tannins, lifted acidity, and a finish that stays floral and pure. Already very expressive; built to evolve over the next decade.
