The 2023 Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils Volnay 1er Cru "Clos des Angles" is a beautifully expressive Premier Cru that captures everything lovers of Volnay cherish—perfumed aromatics, silky texture, and an effortless sense of elegance. From the south-facing Clos des Angles vineyard, where clay and limestone soils impart both generosity and finesse, Pierre Boillot crafts a Pinot Noir that is as graceful as it is age-worthy.

The bouquet is captivating, revealing layers of wild strawberry, Morello cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant, intertwined with violets, rose petals, baking spices, and a whisper of forest floor. As the wine opens, hints of crushed limestone, dried herbs, and subtle earthy notes add depth without overshadowing its vibrant fruit.

On the palate, the 2023 is refined and beautifully poised. A core of red cherry, cranberry, and ripe plum glides across a framework of fine-grained, silky tannins, while bright acidity lends freshness and lift. The hallmark Volnay elegance is on full display, balancing purity of fruit with delicate minerality and floral nuance before finishing long, seamless, and quietly persistent.

Already irresistibly charming in its youth, Clos des Angles possesses the structure and balance to reward 10–15 years of cellaring. Pair it with roast duck, herb-crusted pork loin, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon, or roast chicken with wild mushrooms to showcase its harmonious blend of finesse, energy, and Burgundian sophistication.

Shipping Policy

Open tab

Unless your delivery address is on the West Coast, we strongly discourage you from selecting “Ground Service” as your shipping method. During the winter and summer months, weather conditions (temperature) and longer delivery times can often result in the spoilage of your order. It doesn’t make sense to invest in fine wines and then take the chance of ruining them due environmental factors during transit (faster and safer delivery generally isn’t much more expensive). We don’t make an additional profit on accelerated delivery, but we frequently recommend faster shipping options to our customers outside the West Coast.
You must be 21 years of age to order or receive alcoholic beverages. Any shipments containing alcoholic beverages are sent with an “Adult Signature Required” sticker, and the common carrier that delivers our merchandise is required to ask and check for identification upon delivery. This means that an adult will have to be present at the time of delivery. Please consider shipping to an office address.
During periods of extreme weather, we attempt to ship wines at the beginning of each week in order to get shipments to you before the weekend. This is because we have no control over the temperature conditions at our freight carriers’ warehouses. The result may be that your shipment doesn’t go out the day that you place an order.
We ship by Fedex or Fedex Ground. Our prices include packaging materials. Insurance may be available for an additional charge.
Vintage Wine Merchants, Inc. will arrange for shipment on behalf of the buyer, to an address specified by the buyer, provided that Vintage Wine Merchants, Inc. in its sole judgment believes that such shipment will not subject Vintage Wine Merchants, Inc. to the risk of any sort of legal action or other harm. If a buyer lives in a state where the direct shipment of wine by Vintage Wine Merchants, Inc. violates the law, we suggest that the buyer provide an alternative address in another state or have their wine shipped to a third-party storage facility in a direct shipping-friendly state.
Various states impose limitations on the quantity of alcoholic beverages that may be purchased and brought into their jurisdiction by a purchaser from another state without requiring the purchaser, a seller or shipper to possess certain licenses or permits. Vintage Wine Merchants, Inc. does not, as a condition of sale, assume any obligation nor bear any responsibility whatsoever for applying or obtaining any permits or licenses. Therefore, we recommend that you investigate the possibility of such limitations, and determine the manner in which alcoholic beverages shall be brought into your state from California, so as to comply with all of your state’s requirements.
Wine shipping rules in the United States are controlled by the state you live in. We do not ship wine to the following states at this time:
