Note di degustazione
Bright medium red. Pure but very reticent nose hints at red cherry liqueur, minerals, licorice and mint. Then fairly large-scaled and expansive but utterly fresh and weightless too, offering splendid intensity to its flavors of red berries, red licorice and saline minerality. Really glistens on the back end, finishing with noble tannins and outstanding slowly rising length and grip. A great Volnay in the making.

The 2015 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets has a perfumed and elegant bouquet, which unlike the Volnay Château des Clos du Ducs, instantly charms the sense with its purity and winsome charm. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, the oak a little more present at the moment although that will be subsumed with time. Lovely body and structure here, fleshy at first but that belies the structure and mineralité on the tensile finish. Stunning length, you can taste this a minute after the wine has departed. This is superb.
Red soils for minerality above calcaire. Rich and racy. Lots of beautiful juice. So pure! The vineyard speaks! Not lean but certainly lissome. Real class. Lots of stones on the finish. Lighter than some but no shortage of excellence. (JR)
