Domaine Clos de la Chapelle cultivates a small 0.47-hectare parcel of vines averaging approximately 65 years of age. These mature vines produce naturally low yields, contributing concentration, complexity, and remarkable depth of flavor.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2023 vintage reveals expressive aromas of black cherries, ripe blackberries, dark plums, peonies, subtle cocoa, and warm spices, complemented by delicate notes of sandalwood, toasted oak, and earthy minerality. On the palate, the wine is rich and beautifully structured, offering layers of dark berry fruit, refined tannins, vibrant acidity, and a distinctive mineral backbone. Its generous texture is balanced by freshness and precision, leading to a long, complex finish with lingering notes of fruit, spice, and savory earth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAged in French oak barrels for approximately 12 to 18 months, the wine develops additional depth and complexity while preserving the purity of its Pinot Noir fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis sophisticated Premier Cru Burgundy combines the finesse traditionally associated with Volnay with impressive concentration and aging potential.

I have always loved this terroir since my very earliest days drinking Burgundy and it seems pretty clear to me that today, no one makes a better example of Taillepieds than the team at Clos de la Chapelle! The wine is stunningly complex aromatically right out of the blocks, offering up scents of sweet dark berries, black plums, raw cocoa, gamebird, a gorgeously complex base of soil tones, a touch of brown spices, woodsmoke, peonies and cedary oak. On the palate the wine is pure, precise, full-bodied and sappy at the core, with great soil signature, ripe, buried tannins, good acids and a very, very long, very refined, complex and seamlessly balanced finish. A brilliant young wine!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e90-93 points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (Jan 2025): \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eNot yet racked. Quite a deep ruby purple. The nose shows density but not detail – that will come more after racking. The fruit on the palate is a mix of strawberry, fresher than in some of the cuvees, raspberry and a first hint of blackberry. Tannins are present but in balance, acidity correct, with fair length. Drink from 2030-2038.
