2018 Domaine Michel Lafarge Volnay 1er Cru Clos du Château des Ducs
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Volnay 1er Cru
Less forthcoming aromatically with dense red fruits. The palate is just chockfull of fruit and structure. A real step up in terms of stuffing but the elegance and refinement is still there. Will need 15+ years to show its best. Excellent 95+

From bottle at Domaine. Wow, an incredible layered nose of smoky red cherry, dried herbs and florals. The palate is young but absolutely singing with everything in precise, perfect proportion. Terrific complexity and layering. Long. 95-96
