Entirely secondary aromas with most of the Volany floral charm faded. Palate was a better combination of good earthy flavors with some remaining red cherry flavors. Acid and tannic structure helped keep this wine fairly vibrant through to the finish. Overall good balance for a 1995.

Delicate nose, not really showing classic Volnay. Mostly faded fruit but showing some good minerality and textures of an older Burgundy, albeit showing older than a 10-year old 1er should show. Drink up quickly.

Slightly browning already on edges. Mostly earth tones on nose with floral hints in background. More secondary than primary already with rustic character.Drink up. Tasted twice this year with same notes.
