Gorgeous perfume and texture. Lacey, high toned, bursting with purity and crispness. Flora and red fruit driven. Oak (1/3 new) has integrated, adding a deft sweetness and spice to it all. I love Caillerets when I can have it, to me that classic elegant and sexy Volnay that is so alluring. Pomegranate, wild cherry, candied red apple skin, candied cranberry, blood orange. Mulling spice, struck flint, star anise, sandalwood, red rose, pink peppercorn, damp forest floor. The acid is keen, tannins are suave, more silky and persistently so. The spice and textural finish this wine has is awesome, showing well from 375ml.

Already ready to go. Some decanting helped unleash the aromatics. Great freshness.
