  So pure and bright, with exquisite cherry fruit aromas and flavours. Light florals punctuate, minerally bones support. Beautiful poise and balance. The finish has cut and expands. What a lovely bottle of wine.

  Delicious and classic Volnay. I followed this well crafted gem over 2 nights in a couple of glasses and should mention that it showed best on day 1 and close to room temp.
  
  The aromatics are red to black with a healthy dose of forest floor. The wine is classic, in that it is structured, with mostly restrained alcohol. It drinks like a 14 with more charm and ripe fruit or a 15 with more firm tannin. In a lovely equilibrium, this wine has everything needed for a long sleep in the cellar and will emerge a champ.

  Un Volnay pur et frais, aérien, , rond et élégant, épicé, avec un côté herbacé noble. Léger mais dense et précis. Un très beau villages. 90-91 pts

  Definitely on the leaner, acid driven side. Think I caught this in an awkward phase. While it doesn’t show like a wine with much for structure, it may well blossom in to a pleasant, silky Volnay with expressive aromatics.

  Dark cherry fruit, sappy, intense and long. Very fine tannin. Amazing village wine
