Not profound but a lovely drink. Dark fruit and flowers on the nose. Excellent palate with deep fruit and some savory notes. Long and clean on the finish. Great with food, great alone.

A superb wine. I love the Volnay combination of delicacy and power. How is that possible? Nice red fruit, lots of spicy earth flavors, well balanced with a long finish.

(Bouchard Père et Fils Volnay 1er Cru Caillerets Ancienne Cuvée Carnot) Medium cherry red color; sous bois, tart cherry nose with a touch of brett; surprisingly concentrated on palate, ripe cherry, red fruit, cinnamon, sous bois palate with grip; medium-plus finish

Violet, plum, and modest tartness. Good finish. Drinking well now.

This clearly wasn’t ready. Pretty shut tight even with plenty of swirling. I should have given it a 24 hour slow-ox or let it rest.
