A touch of barnyard funk on the nose with wild cherry. This is very tangy and intense but there is plenty of succulent dark cherry fruit to balance it out. Very crisp acidity and the finish is so mineral-crunchy with a touch of barnyard. This is obviously a good bottle of this wine given the other recent reviews. It's very '96 in its intensity and high acidity but the fruit is there. 93+

Last of 12, pnp, perfect cork and level, essentially as last bottle in June 19, fresh and pure, but thin and weedy with the acids vanquishing any residual fruit, downside, drink up. VG (16)........but lower on pleasure as far too lean and mean.

Very muscular tannins. Fresh and stewed dark and red berries. Not my favorite style.

The fruit and most of the rest was gone here.

Pausing for the Cause Fundraiser and Dinner (Galit - Chicago IL): I really like this wine, but others love it. I always find it big and flashy, but it has never spoken "Volnay" to me. Same tonight.
