Domaine Huber-Verdereau — Volnay
The young and very talented Thiébault Huber, who is something of a protégé of Jean-Pierre Charlot (of Domaine Jospeh Voillot), is from Alsace and is a former sommelier. 1994 was his first harvest in Burgundy as he started with only 3 ha but now controls 6.5 in 11 different appellations. He started farming Biodynamically in 2002 and the entire estate is is now Demeter-certified Biodynamic. Thiebault's wines from Volnay, Pommard and Puligny-Montrachet are dense, concentrated, vibrant and alive with complex flavors and aromas, and tend to blossom over many years in the bottle.
