Gorgeous Volnay here. Deep, florals and Chinese herbs, anise, forest fruits. Yet such fine tannin and bright acid. Long finish. Beautiful

The 2020 Volnay 1er Cru Carelle sous la Chapelle is fairly muted. Two hours in the decanter help unwind a restrained bouquet of rose pedals, violets, red and black cherry, cranberry, wood smoke and hints of iodine. Just a notch below full-bodied, the wine is tightly structured and embodies an underlying strength, which undoubtedly will be unleashed after a few years of bottle aging. I wouldn't dare touching this for at least 10 more years. Drink from 2030 until 2050.

His baby. Soulful, great balance of ripe fruit, florals and minerality

Delicately perfumed. Lean, slightly under ripe raspberry and rhubarb. Elegant and ethereal. Too young I think
