Delicious structured fruit with aromas of ripe dark plums. The big tannins are well balanced with acidity and solid black fruits. Coffee and acidity give complexity.

Dark chocolate notes join acidity and ripe black fruit flavors. The wood is dominant in this relatively soft wine, although the fruit juiciness comes through well to finish.

From vines around the winery of Pousse d’Or, this is ripe and generous, with fine tannins, hints of wood and extract as well as great red cherry acidity. For midterm aging.

A delicious, soft wine, packed with ripe, almost sweet red fruits. More complexity comes from the integrated wood and acidity, although approachability is the dominant character.

Firmly tannic wine, with balancing ripe fruit well under the structured layers. The weight of the wine comes from the rich and generous black plum fruit and acidity. A wine for long-term aging.

For a Volnay, this is a very structured wine. It has huge richness laced with firm tannins and dark fruits. It is the firmness that dominates, suggesting some extra extraction, although the acidity does push right through to the finish.

Dense, weighty and concentrated now, this wine will become opulent once the surface tannins finally integrate. The wine is superrich, with chocolate and licorice partnering with the intense fruit.

A powerful wine, very structured with wood, coffee notes and dark tannins. It feels extracted, although the weight of fruit is certainly enough to handle that. It’s for the long haul, a concentrated wine that needs at least 10 years.
