4 barrels made, about one third below the normal. Deep black purple, a rich sensuality to the nose, very promising. There is a solid core of rich dense cherry, with a firmer more tannic background, but in balance with the density of the fruit. Definitely a wine to put away for rather longer (10+ years) Worth waiting for.

The Clos des Chenes is - as in previous years - quite a powerhouse, and the top cuvée here. In 2020 it’s the quintessential Volnay, with an airy, gorgeous, and hedonistic feel. The day I tasted it the oak was a bit forward, but this is simply a question of time and patience. A big Volnay in the making, and a serious wine.
