Volnay Les Mitans, Domaine Michel Lafarge 2023

Outstanding
Perfumed aromas include those of red currant, dark pinot and a broader range of spice elements. There is again fine volume to the rich and relatively concentrated medium weight flavors that also flash evident minerality on the lightly austere, balanced and equally firm finale. Lovely.

An even mid purple. Stricter on the nose, firmer tannins in the middle, but a wealth of dark red fruit as well, more on the austere side but with excellent persistence. Drink from 2032-2040.

Racy fruit with good depth of flavors. Ethereal despite the firm, savory tannins. Bright acidity pushes the flavors through the finish. Drink from 2028.
