91 Points

Saturday, November 3, 2018 - Don't think this has significantly changed since my previous btl in June 2014.Seems to be riding a plateau and unlikely to improve much. No rush to drink this but I doubt extra years will add much. PnP test Burg glass and slow ox the btl 90 minutes prior to dinner. A very nice representative of mature, ready to drink,Volnay but this will never be a head turner, IMO. Semi translucent red color with some bricking. Perfuse aromas of fading red fruit, spice and underbrush. Underbrush is complimented by aging tart red fruit, cinnamon, minerality and mushroom. A very enjoyable bottle. One left. Might roll the dice and wait till 2022 for its 20th but more likely I drink in a year or two and clear some valuable cabinet space for newly acquired higher achievers. 90-91
