I thought I reviewed this wine before but now can’t find it in the database. This is a more or less drink now wine. Cherry 🍒 plenty of acid well balanced and super nice to drink. There is some depth to the Wine. Chalky and wet stones. Perhaps cranberries. Can go for another 3 years or so. — 5 days ago

Amazing Volnay 1er Cru from Prieur. At 13 years, it has a good 5 more to go but even now, integrated and velvety mouth feel. Densely concentrated with much Berry and citrus (citrus?!). Shows a deep inky red color looking more like a brunello or Zin but indisputably an outstanding Cote de Beaune. — 18 days ago

Uncannily pure looking for such an old wine. Almost certainly topped up given the labels and cork. Plummy deep fruit, clarity and some high toned red stuff. Tart and focused. Very pretty with age but hard to escape that this is refreshed. — 20 days ago

Impressions after initial decant were aromas of strawberry and other red fruits which is unusual for an aged Red Burgundy. This fruity note blew off after an hour. Some stalkiness and spiciness on palate. Barb said aromas of root vegetables like turnip. Light to medium weight which I have come to expect from Volnay particularly in an average vintage like 2004. This is the Clos des Chenes. Would love to try from a better year. — 11 days ago

Not a bad Pinot @ £55 - most Pinot lovers will happily quaff (as did I) this but better wines are available for this kind of money 😁

Belle surprise que ce vin. Très axée sur la cerise et des épices comme le poivre qui amènent même la famille à croire qu’on pourrait être en Cote-Rotie. Je ne l’étais pas mais je comprends les commentaires... c’est assurément plus facile quand on a vu l’étiquette ! Une bouteille très agréable d’un producteur loin de la spéculation — 14 days ago

My first PYCM red and much like their laser focused whites, this was just so damn clean. Lots of lift and lively fruit and it should develop extremely well in the bottle. One to watch very closely. I wish that these wines were not 1) so difficult to source and 2) impossible to keep my hands off of.... — a month ago
