December 2, 2020 - Very volnay. 92-93. PNP out of 375. 92 for me, but 93 for others?
Nose: 93+ Warm berries and ripe earthy notes with medium concentration.
Palate: 92+. Juicy black raspberry, savory dark red cherry. I don't get overt cranberry here despite it being a 2008! Stoney overlay. Bramble/Sous Boise.
Structure: Med+ acidity, but elegant and not a 2008 acid bomb. Medium+ finish.
I typically don't enjoy Volnay or 2008s, but thought this one was rather quaffable. It seems this one has benefited from time in the format? -

January 25, 2019 - At first a distinct blood/iron character to the nose, then deeper down lavender and raspberry soda pop. Well balanced and elegant.

June 9, 2018 - Chapitre and Induction Dinner of the Chevaliers du Tastevin (Schuyler Meadows Club, Loudonville, NY): [Opened about 5:30pm. Not decanted. Served around 8:15pm.] Rich, tart black cherries in the nose and mouth. So delicious. Classic Volnay. Fully ready. Goes really well with the duck. Amy likes it a lot.

July 5, 2016 - Clear medium garnet pronounced
Nose of game and cherries.
Good acidity that softens throughout. Wine becomes silky.
Hasn't evolved much in the 3 hours it has been opened but very nice none the less.
Paired with petit salé au lentilles, interesting combination.
