Bello. Muy elegante. Esperaba mas Syrah (spicy) pero esta súper balanceado con la Garnacha predominando. En su peak. — 17 days ago

Dark red fruit, oxidative notes, stewed fruit, plum, pencil lead, cola, molasses, and ripe black fruit. Medium plus body, high tannins, high alcohol, high acid, and long finish. Drink now with all the tertiary stuff going on, which surprises me given the vintage is only 5 years old. — 3 months ago

“Creamy” and full bodied. Balance of earth and fruit. Enjoyed with grilled steak, seared mushrooms, & roasted Brussels sprouts. Would easily and happily enjoy again. — 2 years ago

Elegant Pinot Noir still lively 13 years after vintage. Restrained fruit and cherry nose. Excellent Burgundy for under $35. — a month ago

From France, but not champagne. Not too dry. Just right.  — 4 months ago

Bright ruby red with pink rim . Quite open and juicy, fresh and enticing , red cherry , raspberry , strawberry , with just a touch of fresh cut herbs . On the palate quite ripe red fruits noted on the nose with just a hint of smokiness. Finishes clean and fresh and with good acidity , ripe fine tannin, good balance and ok length . Quaffable, moreish and nicely judged Côtes du Rhône to drink now and over the next 7-10 years . — 9 months ago

2010. Popped and poured to enjoy during the Olympics Closing Ceremonies. The extra two years since I had my first bottle really helped everything come together. Blueberries and black pepper in the aromas and flavors. — 2 months ago

Bracing white with lovely smoke like wafts of lemon, spice, chalk, green grass and lovely mineral foreground. Layered on long on the tongue. Absolutely needs food as on its own maybe a little too bracing but with a nice grilled fish and salad it’s balanced. — 5 months ago

Popped and poured; no formal notes. The 2020 “Grange le Duc” has some real Volnay sensibilities with lovely, elegant fruit and forest floor with a taut structure. This responded very well to air and I expect this will flesh out with some cellar time. Drinking well now with some patience and will continue to do so through 2030. — 10 months ago
