The 2018 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is showing beautifully from bottle, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cassis, black plums, sweet soil tones and subtle spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep, and concentrated, it's one of the more tightly wound wines in the range, with powdery structuring tannins, lively acids, and a long, penetrating finish.
The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is already extremely charming, bursting from the glass with a lavish bouquet of cassis, dried rose petals, coniferous forest floor and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple, and satiny, with an elegantly textural attack, a nicely concentrated core of fruit and lively acids, concluding with a precise, vibrant finish.
The 2016 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is lovely, wafting from the glass with a youthfully reserved bouquet of wild berries, forest floor, potpourri, and a subtle framing of new cedar wood. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, broad, and satiny, with beautifully powdery tannins cloaked in cool, succulent fruit, concluding with a long finish. Right now, this is quite reserved, but its structural finesse and harmony are already impressive.
The 2013 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets is showing well, opening in the glass with a complex bouquet of smoked meats, hoisin, wild berry fruit and spices. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, delicate, and precise, with racy acids, powdery tannins and impressive concentration despite its fine-boned format, and its sappy expression of fruit is complemented by considerable savoury nuance, concluding with a sappy finish.
