Lovely on pop n'pour with rich, forward red cherry, plenty of florals and spice cake. Good balance with juicy acidity and freshness. At peak with a long drinking window ahead.

Le nez est discret, de cerises, pruneaux et figues. En bouche, les cerises séchées dominent, avec des accents floraux. Les arômes sont soutenus par une belle structure dont les tannins se sont intégrés et une pointe minérale, avec une finale sur une belle longueur. Pas des plus complexes mais ça nous plaît. Les lies en suspension au fond de la bouteille madérisent les dernières gorgées mais le premier verre était excellent.

Delicious wine with substance. Excellent balance but still quite tannic so could wait longer with this wine. Even after 5 hours open then tannins were still very evident. Regardless it was very enjoyable. Nice dark fruit ... blue and blackberries for me dominant.

Similar to my note from a year ago. A pleasant and classic Volnay that is in a peak window now. Should hold for several years.
