  July 25, 2022 - A better bottle than the one one I had last year. This one was more open, with ripe red cherries and chalky flavors. Decent for the price.

  July 10, 2021 - This bottle was quite lean, austere and angular. Maybe the wine has closed down and needs time to come out of its shell.

  September 17, 2019 - Visiting London, Galway, Dublin and Paris; 9/14/2019-9/29/2019 (England, Ireland and France): Pillot's 2015 Volnay is a seductively aromatic Pinot that is effusive of red plums, cherries, violets, baking spices and orange zest. Medium-bodied, freshly acidic, judiciously oaked and with well-woven alcohol (listed as 13.5%), it delivers flavors mirroring the nose. The middle palate is layered, which is where the tannins exert their influence. Closing with a medium-to-long finish that carries some grip, this is a quality offering that will be even better with another year or two in the cellar. Drink 2021-2027.
