Medium red, good acidity, slight floral nose , tannins are first then a sweetness developing into a taste of dark fruit mostly sour cherry. Length is moderate to good. This has loads of capability to blossom into a very good tasting wine. Is this drinkable now..yes depending on how you like your young Burgundies . I am going back off and let this wine sit for a few more years.

Medium red. Nose has a little smoke, pretty berries. Silky feel, medium body, good concentration of fine, medium red fruit. There is some grip on the finish. Young and lovely.

A private lunch (Restaurant Le Cellier Volnaysien, Volnay, France): A masculine but approachable Volnay, firm and structured, fresh and bright in character but with joyous ripe fruit ranging from cranberries to blackberries, violets, finely grained tannins, beautifully balanced, broad shouldered but elegant, welcome hint of oak spice, youthfully tight finish, convincing, very good length. A wine of stature. Drink now - 2037+.

Seemed pretty shut down, even with a few hours in the decanter. Will wait a few years before checking back in.
