Volnay Taillepieds, Domaine de Montille 2022

Discreet wood can be found on the equally floral-suffused aromas of ripe yet cool red berries, kirsch and rose petal. The wonderfully sleek, detailed and overtly mineral-driven medium weight flavors are akin to rolling a small pebble around in the mouth on the bitter pit fruit-inflected finish that goes on and on. I very much like the sophisticated texture and the excellent development potential.

Made from 80 year old vines, vinified with all the stems. A richer purple. The bouquet is stunning, offering intensity with elegance. The core of ripe fruit plus the additional perfume from whole bunches. A very fine graceful texture with tensile strength. Drink from 2032-2038.
