Very light colour, savoury nose. Slight underripe tones but an elegant style of old school burgundy. Not without power and good acidity so will likely last for many years to go

Opened about 2 hours before dinner. Still relatively tight when we sat down for dinner. However the tannins did melt away with more of the fat in the fish and sauce.

Decent acidity but still relatively young. Was still getting fresh red fruit but did taste a very faint hint of iron. Would be better in at least another five years.

Strong but well balanced acidity. Somewhat more new world on the nose but a very compelling wine. Ready to go now. Overall: 92

Very nicely structured especially coming from a white producer. Still a few years before peak, most of the fruits are integrated with some hints of red fruit still evident. Elegant and beautiful nose.

Encore assez de substance pour tenir plusieurs années. Il est toutefois déjà excellent. Les tannins et la tension sont moindres qu’en jeunesse. Ça demeure sérieux, très droit, très Taillepieds d’une excellent domaine.

1st of 12, opened an hour then decanted 30 minutes, perfect cork and level - dark but transparent ruby, little development; cherry, touch of cranberry, slightly sour and mineral edge, pure, fresh and reasonably complex; medium bodied, long, notably persistent, bright fruit, fine balance and grip, slightly simple as yet with unresolved fine tannin apparent on exit, adolescent but drinking, much upside, 20+ years. F+ (18) for now........nice to get an Angerville wine that is actually a good drink as they take an age to come round often going in and out of sulky phases (eg 95, 98 and 99); the 03 is probably to be preferred for current drinking but I suspect this will have the edge when fully mature in say 10 years and the Lord only knows when the 05s will be ready!

Brought to a dinner with some guests visiting from Piemonte. The 2008 “Taillepieds” pours a deep ruby with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no obvious staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with tart and slightly underripe strawberry, cherry, mushrooms, red flowers, varnish (yeah, there’s some VA) stony earth and delicate baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin, medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The body is fit and the finish is long and full of energy. This is a really attractive beauty; the sort that you might feel compelled to apologize to for gawking. And, while I found this to be really tasty at nearly 16 years of age, it clearly has a long way to go. Drink now through 2033+.

2nd wine tasting with consistent notes and score.

Pronounced nose intensity with notes of straw, hay, ripe red fruits, mushroom. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. Medium+ finish. Drinking now well and will improve with ageing.

My first bottle from this producer, after having heard many good things. This wine was terrific, surely among the best Volnay I've had. A very refined and classic Volnay. Flower petals, dung fertilizer, oak, squashed forest berries, cranberry juice, moss, green tea, raspberry cordial, white pepper and a hint of cola. The palate is fine, extremely silky, elegant and balanced. Potentially even higher rating in the future, as this is still clearly very young.

Pommard & Volnay tout en nuances - Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Palais des Congrès - Beaune): Walkaround tasting with producers. Almost 90 yo vines. Rich and fleshy black and red berries bring powerful fruit aromas and flavors, supported with sweet spice and robust tannins. Not the most integrated wine in the lineup, but certainly the most exciting. A wine to cellar for a decade+.

7th of 12, opened an hour then decanted 30 minutes, perfect level, cork pulled through and crumbled to dust though clean, improving trajectory noted in December, even a hint of elegance and silk in this former thug and showing characteristics more of Taillepieds and less of more muscular Santenots, in danger of an upgrade, balance for 12+ years. At least F (17.5).

Somptueux arômes floraux et minéraux au nez. La bouche est élégante, fruitée (cerise et fruit rouge). La finale est longue, minérale. En pleine maturité, et délicieux.

3/22/2024 - eboracum Likes this wine: 91 points

Luckily this turned out to be a good bottle. It was surprisingly fresh for its 31 years with a linear shape, a bit shy in aromas but well focussed with still some primary griotte cherry fruit, fine minerals, some underlying roundness and complexity, bright acidity and and decent firmness on the finish. I can see what the late Hubert de Montille's admirers mean by diamond like focus but I prefer more sensuality and graciousness in Burgundy. But this bottle, but not its predecessor, was very good though.

3/23/2024 - Keith Levenberg Likes this wine: 88 points

Solid and robust, which feels right for Taillepieds. There is a little prickle from gas, which needs to be shaken out, and from the tannins, which are otherwise packed and tight grained. The fruit is full and violet-shaded. A little more personality would be nice but for the value pricing you can afford to put some away and bet on it emerging later on.

Mainly red fruit, spices (some gloves, pepper), tannins well integrated, nice density and good length.
The cork went out in crumbles, have to buy an old Burgundian corkscrew with the 2 blades to squeeze the cork on both sides for pulling it out.
Otherwise a splendid wine. Pascal was at that time the partner and mentor of Cecile Tremblay.

Ruby with little clearing. Slight funk on the nose which made me wonder at first whether it was corked, but it was not. Licorice and some pepperiness on the nose. Medium weight, very deep black cherry, soil, great acidity and salinity, and ripe tannins. This has matured and fleshed out beautifully. Well worth the wait and just at the beginning of its drinking window. Outstanding Volnay.

Very pure fruited and transformed in the glass. On open it was crunchy strawberry and red raspberry, with air it picked up violets, black cherry and black raspberry. Extremely primary, vivid fruit. Very clean and pure. Reminds me of what Oregon pinot could be, if it was made in Burgundy (this vivid fruit also has spice, slightly more concentration and ?layers? you don’t find in Oregon). There is value in Beaune.

Second pour from a Coravin; first one was 3 weeks ago. Perfumed feminine nose not unlike Chambolle. Silky body with slightly dark and sweet fruit like maraschino cherry. Surprisingly lively acid on the long finish, maybe a little too much for me. Also just a smidge of oak which for me also is too much. Very nice even if it doesn’t fully hit the bullseye for my taste.

Je n’avais pas beaucoup d’espoir sur ce 2008 mais un grand terroir se révèle toujours.
L’acidité mordante a disparu et laisse place à un vin frais mais néanmoins exquis et très fin.
Les (peu de) tannins longtemps revêches se sont intégrés dans le vin. Excellent vin sur un millésime faible

While young and too early to drink a solid 2 hour decant really helps. Lots of mineral and terroir on the finish of fresh and ripe red berries.

PnP. Clean floral nose. Tough tannins of the vintage mostly softened. Vibrant acidity to keep it really lively, very enjoyable bottle, probably the best showing from the case. Pure and silky with some dark soils lurking underneath, very Volny and very Angerville. I often wonder if ‘98 could turn out to be like ‘93 once those stubborn tannins turned the corner. This bottle was showing all the possibilities.

Medium to dark ruby. Quite structured. Savory, with just a hint of underlying (stem?) bitterness. Not particularly friendly at this point, but nevertheless quite enjoyable, Coravined, over the course of a week.
