Community Tasting Notes 11

  • Venice Al Likes this wine:

    September 2, 2023 - Decanted 1 hour. Pale ruby, with pale garnet tinges on the edges. Pretty clarity. Medium bodied, medium acidity. Medium- tannins
    Cherry florals, mixed cherries, red plum, caramel, orange peel, slight earth and rocky minerality. Prettier, more balanced, and tastier than I was expecting from this producer at this level. With the decant- in a nice place, much better than a few earlier bottles. Clearly not the most age-able or complex Volnay, and mid-palate is somewhat lacking, but I wish there were more of these wines at my original sale price of $35, including tax. Fortunately I bought a case! Drink in the next 3-5 years.

    January 7, 2022 - I really liked this. Drinking beautifully and very approachable at a relatively young age. Lots of red fruit; some tannin but not intrusive. All in all very good village wine.

    October 24, 2021 - Typisch Burgund. Sehr elegant and leichtfüßig. Die Flasche war wie immer viel zu schnell leer. Der Wein kann noch mindestens 10 Jahre reifen bis er auf seinem Höhepunkt ist.
