Killed a baby and lived to tell about it. As classic as it gets in Volnay. Great vintage for this wine. Stoney nose with deep red cherries, mint and wonderful underbrush aka sous bois. Gorgeous nose. Palate is juicy, complex and full of fruit but a brooding structure as well. Exceptional balance and freshness. Stunning depth. Maybe at 5% of what it is capable of. Deep and concentrated fruit that is dense as it is young and raw. Amazing potential. Classic Clos du Chenes.
