Note di degustazione
Dark red with ruby highlights. Very ripe, smoky, soil-driven aromas of redcurrant, cinders, tobacco and underbrush; a bit of a shock following the more classic 2016s at this address. Large-scaled, rich and deep, conveying uncommon breadth to its red berry and earth flavors. Finishes with big, chewy, dusty, palate-coating tannins and excellent length. Like all of these '16s, this one calls for at least several years of cellaring.

The 2015 Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Bousse d'Or, from the 2.3-hectare monopole, has a sensual bouquet with ripe black cherries intermixed with iodine and crushed violet scents. I appreciate the focus and control here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, layers of blackberry and boysenberry fruit with a dense, assertive finish that will require 4-6 years to soften. There is substance and "thrust" here - what I would like to see is more nuance develop on the finish.
Full ruby-red. Musky black cherry and chocolate on the nose. Sweeter and more pliant than the oak-aged Caillerets, showing enticing juicy acidity but less floral lift and concentration than that wine. Finishes with a sexy note of chocolatey oak, some subtly complex soil tones and very suave tannins.
