This is a delightful village Vosne that was drinking well after about an hour of air. There was very good depth and concentration to the pretty red fruit. Earthy sous bois, firm minerality and chalky tannins finished this one off. The mouthfeel was midweight with an interesting juxtaposition between the more delicate fruit and the firmish tannins. All in all, quite nice.

Very pretty nose of red cherry with some floral undertones and a hint of Asian spice, all which follow thru to the palate where the dark red fruit is rich and penetrating and has a firm minerality at its core. The tannins on the mid length finish are still abit on the firmish side, but overall, this was delightful after an hour or so of air.

This is a delightful village Volnay with good depth and concentration for its level to its earthy, red fruit. There’s firm minerality, sous bois undertones, a bright acidic core and firmish chalky tannins on the mid length finish. This needed a couple of hours in the decanter to open. Quite nice.
