Domaine Nicolas Rossignol 2015 'Clos de Angles' Volnay 1er Cru, Burgundy, France
- Winemaker: Nicolas Rossignol
- Farming: Lutte raisonnée (with organic and biodynamic methods)
- Variety: Pinot Noir
- Terroir: The soil is a mix of brown-gray clay and chalk with little white stones. The plot starts at the beginning of a basin, attracting the heat of the sun during the day, and conserves it at night. This helps create softer and silkier tannins. Planted in 1941, 1955, 1986, 2015
- Vinification: Up to 50% whole-cluster, indigenous yeast fermentation, minimal punch-downs. Aged for 18 months in barrel (20% new oak). Nicolas strives to use sulfur only prior to bottling. Total sulfur: 20-45 mg/L.
