Domaine François Buffet
Volnay Pinot Noir
Volnay, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Beautiful mashed mid season cherries, cooling spices, some tangy strawberry and cranberry as well. Superb earth and a hint of lipstick like intensity. Very deep. Very layered, very old school and so classic. Volnay 101. Palate is elegant, clean as a whistle and has lovely sour cherry, mid season and early season cherry fruit and also ripe strawberries but it’s not about fruit. Huge stoney minerals and great energy are the core of this wine. Gorgeous texture. Lovely succulence and sap. Long finish. Long and serious wine. Only gets better with air.
