2022 vintage. Medium body. Less mineral investment than expected but came on all cylinders on a really long finish. A fave Chablis producer and I really wanted to say no since I def don’t need Chablis currently but the truth/quality overcame the reluctance/barriers. 7.10.24. — 2 months ago
2024/8/24 with wagyu lemon steak. Perhaps not fully open right now, but lovely nonetheless. Lots of juicy red cherry and berries with hints of forest floor, flower petals and high-toned spices on the nose. The palate undulates between lush approachability and reserve, but this is wonderful wine with a lot more ahead — 22 days ago

2024/8/13-14. I don’t know that I actually prefer this to the regular Volnay at this stage; this is more dense, but at this point that manifests as a bit of dried, even raisiny fruit at times. There is still that elegant red fruit essence and a slightly rose-like floral note , though — a month ago

2024/9/1-2. This is traditional red Burgundy in the best way (for my taste) - red-fruited, limpid red, acid and mineral balanced by sweet fruit that flirts with being not quite enough — 13 days ago
