Taillepieds Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir

Delicate and brooding, turned wart, wet leaves, and stewed red fruit. Hmmmm 🤔 seems too developed for a well stored burg from a great year

Tight and unyielding now. May develop well but not showing well now

07 D'Angerville Champans. More red fruits than the Fremiets, plus a little earthy, mossy funk (in a good way).

2008 vintage

1996

1998. Bright red fruit. Initially short and dry finish but opened up well, best on second day.

Overpowered by the cabs we were drinking on the night but still solid.

1998. Bright, pronounced floral nose, balanced palate, medium finish. Gorgeous.

So pretty, elegant. Fascinating balance of spring flowers & dirt. In a sweet spot.

Floral pretty nose with ripe red fruit, spices, touch of heat, volnay dirt and slightly dusty tannins. 1998. Bad vintage of volnay better than a good day at work.
