Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is big, rich and long. Still tastes like must. Hard to taste, but should be fantastic. I love the richness and spice."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
The soft, sexy 2009 exhibits a dense plum/purple color along with a big, sweet bouquet of raspberries, black cherries, black currants, smoke and forest floor. Opulent and round with an attractive viscosity as well as outstanding purity, depth and length, it should drink well for two decades. While..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Intense aromas of blackberry and smoke. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and long finish. Solid and tight. As it should be."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Beautiful structure. Vanilla, tobacco, dark fruit, some earthy flavors.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"... there is good ripeness to the vibrant and well-detailed medium-bodied flavors that exude a fine minerality on the precise, pure and lingering finish. This is a quality villages that is a bit more forward than the old vines cuvée."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Volnay bursts from the glass with bright red fruit, flowers, mint and spices. There is a nervous energy to the Volnay that is incredibly appealing. Beautifully articulated saline notes contribute briskness on the finish. This is a flat-out delicious Volnay."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Moderate wood influence fights just a bit with the otherwise very fresh and pretty aromas that display a significant floral component along with ripe scents of plum, cassis and earth. There is fine mid-palate density and excellent phenolic maturity to the large-scaled yet refined flavors that..
