Volnay 2019 Domaines des Comtes Lafon

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (91)

Deriving, as usual, from young vines in Les Santenots, the 2019 Volnay Village reveals aromas of cherries and sweet berries, complemented by hints of peony and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, sensual and enveloping, its lively core of fruit is framed by melting tannins. This will offer a broad drinking window.

Young vines in Santenots (they don’t have any village wines). First to be picked. Cask sample.
Lively nose, slightly vegy. Big and rich start – still seems quite sweet! And that obliterates almost all the tannin, which is certainly there.
