Dramatic nose of deep red cherries, spice, smoke and complex mineral tones. Super perfumed. Wow so so floral. Really really nice. Just a complete nose. Some floral, some fruit, hint of sweet wood, some mineral, core of cherry fruit and so expansive. Why we drink burgundy nose. Palate is super elegant with lovely, succulent red fruits and lovely concentration but also so restrained. Sweet, elegant tannins and terrific length. Terrific inner mouth aromas, soft but substantial. A hint of being closed but air will help as the 2017 volnay 1er Cru’s from Buffet need an hour or so.

9.4 to 9.5 overnight. Got elite, sweet and velvety. So good today.
