Domaine Matrot Wittersheim Volnay 1er Cru Santenots
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2005SKU7068
A more elegant and higher-toned nose of red pinot fruit with the same violet/floral notes leads to delicious, round and sophisticated flavors that possess good depth and density on the very fresh and detailed finish. Allen Meadows - BurghoundFRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2005SKU7119
This is quite ripe yet the red and dark berry fruit aromas are airy and pure with an abundant earthiness present on the rich, serious and rather brooding middle weight flavors supported by excellent dry extract and ripe structural elements on the solidly long finish.

Nicolas Potel Volnay Vieilles Vignes
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2005SKU7340
Moderate reduction makes the nose difficult to evaluate but the moderately rustic and full-bodied flavors are frank, rich and direct, underpinned by rugged if not aggressive tannins on the supple but admirably dense finish. This is complex and the material is impressive enough though like the ValoziPrice: $89.99
Nicolas Potel Volnay 1er Cru Champans
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2005SKU6630
Deep ruby. The nose is exceptionally ripe and it characterizes the rich, supple and forward flavors that are much more refined and I like the mouth feel as there are refined tannins and plenty of the classic minerality on the persistent finish. Outstanding! Allen Meadows - BurghoundPrice: $119.99
Domaine Jacques Prieur Volnay-Santenots 1er Cru
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2006SKU8275
Light ruby. In a continuing theme, this too is very fresh and very red pinot in character on the lacy and airy nose that introduces round, easy and refined flavors underpinned by lightly structured tannins and a dusty finish that is utterly delicious. Allen Meadows - BurghoundPrice: $139.99
Domaine Jacques Prieur Volnay 1er Cru Clos de Santenots
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - VOLNAY
Size750MLVintage2006SKU8276
Interestingly, this is more elegant. there is also a bit more ripeness here and the nose evidences both red and blue pinot fruit aromas that complement well the rich, full and sweet flavors that offer good volume and while the structure is also supple, there is more of it. The depth that I usually find with this wine finally arrives on the finish and this is lovely if a bit more forward than is typical. Sweet Spot Outstanding!

A much more reserved nose that despite its reticence is elegant, pure and clearly very ripe leading to rich, full and somber flavors supported by dusty and mouth coating tannins. This is a backward effort that will need time to blossom yet the underlying material is undeniably in place for this to slowly mature into something special. Outstanding!
