Brought to a dîner at a very generous host. Opened in between the 91 Corton-Charlemagne and two Bordeaux served blind. Nice but eclipsed by the other wines. Still has a long way to go but well rounded already. Silky tannins classic to Volnay and displayed the 2010 elegance.

Still just a baby with primary black cherry and spice. This has weight and concentration above its pedigree. Needs more time to develop nuance. Upside from here.

Really beautiful and about as good as you can hope for from a village Volnay. Great balance and mouthwatering acidity. The fruit was a tad tart here (cranberry, underripe cherry/plum) but was uplifting rather than unripe. Texture was very smooth and silky, especially for a village wine. Only criticism is that the finish was a bit clipped but not abruptly so. Acidity allows this to last longer -- will try again in 3-5y.
