Named for Pascal Roblet's father, the cuvee brings together several Volnay parcels. Pascal works from a small cellar in Bligny-les-Beaune; his family's connections to Volnay stretch back generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyards\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cuvee draws on holdings including Sur Roches, Famines, Buttes and Pasquiers. The domaine uses dense planting, low yields and biodynamic farming practices. This is Volnay village wine, rather than a separately bottled Premier Cru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParcels are vinified individually, with the proportion of whole clusters adjusted by lot. Bill Nanson's October 2023 tasting of the 2022 confirmed a blend of destemmed, partly destemmed and whole-cluster lots. The domaine favors gentle extraction and long barrel maturation, and bottles its reds without fining or filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe published 2022 reviews describe berry and floral aromas, a silky, layered palate and refreshing acidity. Fragrant fruit and supple texture are balanced by depth and a persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuggested Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuggested pairings include roast duck, guinea fowl, veal, mushroom dishes and lentils with roasted root vegetables. Serve slightly cool and allow time in the glass for the aromas to unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRatings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91-93 Points - Wine Advocate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Wafting from the glass with around of raspberries, wild berries, rose petals, licorice and violets, the 2022 Volnay Saint François is medium to full-bodied, deep and suave, with a layered and fleshy palate, lively acids and a long, fragrant finish. As readers may remember, this cuvée is a blend derived from Roblet's holdings in Sur Roches, Famines, Buttes and Pasquiers.\" -William Kelley (Jan 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90-92 Points - Jasper Morris:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"One tank was vinified 100% whole bunch, one tank 50\/50. Glowing purple, lots of stuffing but energy too. There's a huge amount going on here, unexpected depth for a village and the thicker texture of the Roblet-Monnot style. Long, classy finish. Drinking Window: 2028-2036.\" -Jasper Morris (May 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBurgundy-Report (Top Wine):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Pascal’s father is called Francois, and one of his sons too. This note from a blend of three barrels… Some parcels destemmed, some not, some partially destemmed – this, of course, the assembly. Still a very deep nose but also a silkier nose. Hmm – direct and silky – architectural. Still some finesse with elevage but this could be a great one!\" -Bill Nanson (Oct 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VINIFERA WINE MARKETING","offers":[{"title":"750 mL","offer_id":67959213621613,"sku":null,"price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0481\/8940\/7391\/files\/roblet-monnot-volnay-saint-francois-vintage-neutral-bottle.png?v=1794361665","url":"https:\/\/artisan.wine\/products\/domaine-roblet-monnot-volnay-saint-francois-2022","provider":"Artisan W\u0026S","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
