Ready to drink now on an excellent vintage. Delicate wine with civilized tannins and a flowery style. Fantastic QPR because it tastes well above its league.

The 2012 Volnay is in a beautiful state of development where its showing both youthfulness and development; starting of with pronounced primary and charming aromas of crushed strawberries and rose petal aromas, before justifying its origin with the tell tale sobouis characters and finishing of with a defined rocky mineralitiy. Palate is well balanced with fine, velvety, tannins and a broad but fresh midpalate and a long, vibrant finish.
