Note di degustazione
The 2008 Volnay Clos des Ducs 1er Cru is much more complex on the nose than the Champans, with brambly red fruit, a touch of loam developing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, taut and crisp, tightly wound red fruit, still quite austere towards the finish, but it gains a little more flesh in the glass. Serious though, and I can see it continuing to age in bottle.

Monopole. Broad and structured. Lots of evolution. Pomegranates and then slightly dry on the end. A bit awkward. Slightly tart. (JR)
Light cherry red. Lightly sweet and scented. Firm and structured on the palate. Not a lot of fruit in the middle. A little austere at the moment. (JR)
Bright medium red. Pungent aromas of raspberry, cherry, minerals and spices. Lush and silky in the mouth but with terrific energy and a weightless character to the flavors of red fruits, spices and flowers. This round but very young wine has a terrific spine for development in bottle. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins and noteworthy vibrancy. Has the most dimension of this set of 2008s.
