The primary fruit has nearly faded but the secondary Volnay character is still developing. This is so pretty, with a wonderful Volnay stink just starting here, but it really needs another 3-5 years. Was at its best with 4 hours of air.

No life left at all, far past plateau of maturity but showed no flaws or signs of improper storage. Just plain too old, by a decade easily.

beautiful, elegant wined that was great right out of the bottle. soft red fruit profile with a slight bit of acidity at the finish.

Serious nose showing good richness, perfumed sweet Pinot fruits; quite sinewy tannins on the palate though with good fruit. Moderately long.
