Cellar/Tasting Notes
The 2011 Volnay Premier Cru Clos de la Barre is a fruity wine with vanilla and violet aromas.
A young Volnay is a perfect pair with roast meats and poultry while an older vintage will be excetional with richer red meat dishes and mellow chesses such as Brie, Chaource or Reblochon. Burghound (BH): 89-91 "Here too there is moderate toasty influence on the notably ripe, indeed almost liqueur-like aromas of red and black raspberry, cassis, plum and soft spice notes. There is a textured mouth feel to the supple, round and delicious middle weight flavors that possess a bit more verve before culminating in a firm, serious and solidly persistent finish. There is good balance and fine depth though note that this will need time." |
