With Duck. Mild nose. Restrained palate with a savoury tang. To be honest unimpressive. Was expecting more complexity and power. I realise there are no Grand Crus in Volnay but I have had some impressive Premier Crus like Taillepeds and Clos des Ducs. This is a Volnay Villages and that is the level. The next night disappointing. To be honest Australian Pinots at this price point ($95) most of them are noticeably better.

Pairs well with rendang. Not spicy food. Food with earthy heat takes away the original sharpness and leaves that creamy feeling.

체리향이 강하게 풍기고 타닌감이 강하게 여운이 남는다. 질감이 풍부하다는게 타닌감으로 느껴진다.
