Light ruby color. Oaky nose at start but turned into tobacco, cocoa later. First attack was slightly acidic and tannic. Left it for few hours, it developed into beautiful bouquet of fruits, spice and mineral. Nice one.

Absolutely charming. Pretty, vibrant, needed a half hour to open up but then a wonderful medium to light bodied Volnay with all the dusty bright red cherry fruit you would expect. Textbook.

(Tasted at McCarthy & Schiering.) This vibrant nose shows bright cherry and strawberry with some slightly funky notes in the distance. On the palate this is bright with some sweetness, good purity, and vibrant acidity. On the finish this fades out to a pleasant hint of strawberry. This is clean and straightforward but a bit lean for my preference.

Feminine, delicate and charming wine - utterly typical for its village and grower - very good value
