Perhaps had a bit young, and surely out of sequence. Had at DC Bobby Van with porterhouse, other wine drunk first was a 2008 Altagracia. Anyhow, the Volnay showed a very nice burg nose, and minerality and focus. Not confident in the tannins that I'm predicting better over time.

Ruby. Attractive nose of plum, cherry, liquorice, and sous bois. There is an appealing balance of fruit and earth in the mouth, but not much intensity or purity. Medium-light body is lithe and supple. This could benefit from a few more years cellar rest.

The floral aroma reveals its Volnay origin. It has half of everything in the bottle of Fremiets from Marquis d'Angerville.

It was ok. The fruit seemed a little under ripe. Didn't improve the next day.

Liked the minerality, lightness and purity of fruit, the acidity- nice now, better over time
