Unusually dark crimson for a Volnay. Quite confident, assertive nose. Very smooth and juicy with creditable fruit overlaying fine tannins. This could be a good bet? (JR)

The 2013 Volnay Vieilles Vignes comes from just below the premier cru vineyards in a sunny microclimate on shallow, clayey red soils. The terroir is articulated nicely on the nose, the red fruit infused with damp earthy scents, nicely defined. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, plenty of fruit here that belies the structure underneath. There is impressive depth to this Volnay, a sappiness to the fruit with a gentle but insistent grip. Afford this 3 to 5 years in bottle before broaching.
