  In a good place right now. Classic nose, some acidity initially but that disappeared with the food. Well structured and just got better and better. Exceeded my expectations by far since I don't remember the last bottle nearly as good.

  well now, this was very good (at least relative to expectations)... med+ or full-minus body, but with acidity and lift to carry it, dark red fruit, not a lot of complexity (umami etc) but just well structured and good for food or on its own... gave it a 92 but could have given 93... feels like its just into the zone but has plenty of time left (15 years more??)

  Marquis d'Angerville Tasting and Lunch (Restaurant Fitzgerald *, Rotterdam, NL): Compared to other vintages tasted today on the light and dry side, more herbaceous, quite grippy but not without charm, needs food.

  What a delightful Volnay! The flavour profile leans toward the high toned, red fruited, but doesn't lack depth and there's a real intensity & good length to the beautifully taught & impeccably balanced medium bodied palate. Immediately enjoyable on opening, but notably improved over 3 or 4 hours drinking time (not decanted). I think I pick up something of a 2011 vintage character; but it's handled very well. The pronounced acidity makes it a food wine for me, but it's so elegant and charming that I'd happily drink it by itself. I don't understand the 'rich & fat' descriptor used in a review below - a few point in that direction, but this wasn't what I was getting from the wine. (My first D'Angerville, a part from the Domaine du Pellican Jura's which, FWIW, I adore - & think I can pick up a 'house style' - must try more of their Burgundies & then will know if this is nonsense or not ;) 2026 end to the drinking window seems conservative

  Lovely, dark, ripe and elegant. Benefits from an hour of air. Delightfully open right now.
