  Opened up over an hour, drinking very well at two hours. Beautiful red fruit, silky tannins, long finish. Has more time, let it breathe. Cork in nice shape.

  We had 2 bottles. The first was dark fruit nose and well balanced long taste. The second was similar but it had a slight fizz on the tongue. I had not noticed it when I opened the bottle but did feel that the other bottle was slightly sweeter and better balanced, hence we had that first and no-one commented on the slight fizz

  This is now drinking better than ever. Lovely nose, translucent colour and soft tanins with plenty of fruit. The second bottle had a slight fiz in the tongue when first opened

  Horizontale de premiers crus Volnay 2009 (au Quartier Général): Nez charmeur de fruit rouge
  Bouche mûre et ronde, gourmande, finale de belle longueur et savoureuse. Profond et envoûtant. 93-94p
  
  La dégustation à l'aveugle apporte toujours son lot de surprises, celle-ci en fut une de taille (pied)
