The 2009 Volnay Les Caillerets is a wine that impresses for its energy and vibrancy. The bright red fruit shows commendable focus and nuance, with plenty of substance. This is high class juice. Here the vines are 55 years old. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. Louis Boillot remarked that he and his wife Ghislaine Barthod were the first to harvest in 2009, but the last in 2008. In 2009 Boillot was concerned with losing the singular expression of site, hence his decision to pick on the early side. The 2009s were made from 100% destemmed fruit, as is the custom here. New oak reached a maximum of 25-30%. Boillot is among the growers who prefers the 2008s to the 2009s, which he describes as more faithful and transparent to site.
