Frederic Cossard Domaine de Chassorney Volnay 2022
Frederic Cossard’s Domaine de Chassorney crafts Volnay 2022, a Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, reflecting the estate’s biodynamic, natural winemaking approach on rented old vines. This red emphasizes purity, terroir expression, and minimal intervention, with no added sulfur.
Estate Style
Domaine de Chassorney, founded in 1996 by Frédéric Cossard (a former dairy farmer turned natural wine pioneer), farms biodynamically across appellations like Volnay, using hand-harvests, natural fermentation, and oak or cement aging for vibrant, precise reds. Volnay wines here highlight silky textures and floral-spicy notes true to the village’s elegant style.
