Camille Giroud, Volnay Lurets other_regions_australiaThis is aromatically similar to the straight Volnay though while I like the slightly better complexity the nose isnt quite as fresh. There is better vibrancy on the palate of the succulent and round flavors that also exude a subtle minerality on the slightly warm and raspy finish. This is certainly good but its not quite as well balanced.

There is excellent richness to the medium-bodied flavors thanks to the abundant levels of dry extract that help to impart a velvety texture to the sappy and lingering finish

Tense and vibrant

restrained and lilting but punchy middleweight flavors that conclude in a balanced

it will easily age for another 25-30 years in the cellar and drink well through 2050
