Note di degustazione
(13. 4% alcohol; 100% destemmed): Healthy medium red. Wild, musky aromas of red cherry, game and underbrush convey an almost honeyed ripeness. Fat, rich and sweet; the plush, palate-saturating redcurrant and game flavors have just enough mineral lift to maintain their shape; not a particularly elegant style of Cailleret. Finishes with substantial, fully ripe tannins. This wine is actually quite low in acidity, but its limestone element gives it refreshment value. But does it have enough grip for more than mid-term aging?

The 2014 Volnay 1er Cru Caillerets, which is completely destemmed, has a very fine, quite precise bouquet, though perhaps not quite as flamboyant as the Clos des Angles. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and moderate density, but perhaps just missing a little complexity coming after the Clos des Angles. Let's see how this turns out in bottle. I'd like to see more terroir coming through.
