Perfumed nose. The palate is beautifully balanced with an inner core of sweet red berried accompanied by flowers and crushed stones. Understated and elegant.Dec 2015

(Mitans and Caillerets were the Lafarges' most hail-affected Volnay vineyards in 2014): Medium red. Aromas of black cherry and menthol communicate a medicinal reserve. Juicy and intense but slightly dry, with redcurrant and cinnamon flavors dominating.
The 2014 Volnay 1er Cru Mitans has a slightly more rustic bouquet compared to the Beaune Grève, a light marine influence becoming more evident during aeration. The palate is very well balanced with supple, ripe red cherry and strawberry fruit, here with hints of dried orange rind and quince. Good body and structure on the finish, this rugged but engaging Volnay will have long term potential, if not quite the finesse of the finest crus from Lafarge.
