Domaine Jean-Jacques Girard
En Chevret Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Volnay, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Stunning nose. Super aromatic, complex and spicey with a subtle herbal edge that is so so pretty. My goodness this is so pretty. Perfumed. Mashed violets and some wet earth. Insane sweetness on the attack followed by great acidity and freshness and some big tannins. This is more large scaled and structured than the Mitants. Terrific length and a sense of seriousness. Very deep and very young. This has exquisite fruit (mostly dark red cherries and black cherries) but the structure is dominant now. I’ll be back as this airs. With some brief aeration we’ve got stunning rose petals now. Dark red roses. Sweet late season red cherries as well. Super impressive inner mouth aromas and super explosive. Wow.
After many hours open this is stunning. 9.5 to 9.6 and and this is just brilliant and has that supernal balance that only elite wines have. Stunning fruit. Insane. So pure and so sappy. Genius.
