Great wine and admittedly we are drinking it too young. Great body, balanced and has more tannin than I was expecting but add another 5-10 years and this wine would be stellar. Great fruit and a delicate dusty nose with a little wild rose and lavender .

Beautiful. Bright red fruit, nice middle body. Gorgeous aromatics Cherry fruit with darker complexity. Wonderful fruit/oak integration. What a value at $60.

Punched way above its weight, beautiful core of dark cherry and fine-grained tannins still driving crisp acidity. Nice.

Subtle notes of blood orange, cranberry and earth. Needs time.

Intensely floral, game birds, cola, nut skins. Big-framed, tannic, a touch rustic. Boillot's '13s are great!

Really a marathon runner. Needs time, lots of dark red fruit tannin that need to soften up. Very good though...

Rough around the edges, but definite potential in 5-10 years. Volnay aromatics; Pommard structure.

2005 Volnay. Dried cherry coke on the nose. Same thing on the palette. It's light purple and soft with good acidity but a definite grip. Looping finish
