Cellar/Tasting Notes
The 2011 Volnay Premier Cru Santenots is a very well structured red wine exhibiting roundness in the mouth with elegant tannins. It is a charming wine developing red berries and spices aromas evolving to truffles, undergrowth and animals notes. Very silky in the mouth, it is usually qualified as a..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is a beautiful wine that exhibits seductively dark concentration and bright aromas of red berries, cola and licorice that are characteristic of the Nebbiolo grape. The tannins show a polished, silky nature and will continue to evolve over long years of cellar aging."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Aromas of blueberries and minerals, with hints of flowers. Full body, with silky tannins and a fresh, clean finish. Chewy, yet polished.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This offers quite an interesting, and completely different, nose as it's quite floral with wild raspberry, currant and wet stone nuances combining with refined, detailed and very pinot flavors. There is an excellent depth, length and impeccable balance to the sappy and energetic finish. A really..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Although it begins with austerity, its acidity and tannins dominant, the palate opens beyond its youthfulness after a few moments. It becomes dark and powerful, certainly still dryly tannic, but the fruit is generous, and the final taste is of beautiful, ripe fruits.
