Note di degustazione
Wafting from the glass with lovely aromas of peonies, wild berries, coniferous forest floor and raw cocoa, Bouley's 2018 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is medium to full-bodied, bright and perfumed, with a sumptuous attack, melting tannins and lively acids, concluding with a pure, mineral finish. Surpassing its performance from barrel, this has turned out especially well.

Much more fragrant and less obviously oaky than the Carelles though the oak shows on the chocolate-textured tannins. A little bit flat on the palate, lacks freshness. (JH)
The 2018 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru has an understated bouquet, especially for this appellation, featuring well-defined red berry, briar and light sous-bois aromas. It feels like there is some whole bunch here, but in fact there is nary a stem. The palate is framed by fine tannins and superb mineralité. Very focused, with a supple orange-peel-infused finish that fans out wonderfully. One of Thomas Bouley’s best wines.
