Open and expressive on the nose, really pretty with earthy notes, red fruit, dark flowers, spices; quite layered and complex. On the palate a little drying towards the finish. Good fruit overall, nice acidity, spicy, a little stemmy. Intense finish, good length. Drink up. 91-93

Opened 30 minutes before tasting. Mature red cherry aromas and flavors with spice, earth and hints of autumn flowers. Good weight and length. Holding very well with even better balance. Last taste, 3+ hours after opening, was certainly the best.

Perfumed with mature red cherry, good length and the elegance we adore from Volnay. Good for another 5* years.

Autumn flavors, matured red cherry with subtle spice. Overall classically Volnay, drinking well now and holding up very well.

Good, but showing a little VA. Not at the level of other recent bottles.
