I don't have much experience with aged burgundy, but I tasted another 2008 by the same producer at a tasting earlier this year (Pommard Premier Cru Rugiens, also wonderful), and the producer thought it would keep for another 20 years. Not sure if the same would also apply to 2008 Volnay, but there's probably no rush to drink it.

Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
