    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The great vineyard of Volnay that produces statuesque, complex mineral wines that give away little in their youth. The 2010, rather like the Taillepieds, is a touch more outgoing than usual, in fact it is downright seductive. This could prove one of the great Clos des Ducs to come out of the domaine. It displays layer after layer of sweet fruit, minerals, salts, earth, spices, bramble, dark cherry, strawberry and kirsch flavours. A totally complete Volnay of considerable sophistication. Fabulous.

    Neal Martin,

    The 2010 Volnay Clos des Ducs 1er Cru is just a joy from start to finish. It has an alluring, open and crystalline bouquet that blossoms in the glass, vivacious red fruit, touches of damp undergrowth and spellbinding mineralité. Touches of shucked oyster shells develop with time. The palate is beautifully balanced with more depth on the mid-palate than either the Champans and Taillepieds 2010 tasted alongside. It possesses the backbone you expect from a Clos des Ducs with a touch of sour cherry lending race on the sustained finish. Wonderful. Tasted at the Marquis d'Angerville tasting in London.
