Volnay 1er Cru, Clos des Ducs--Vintage 2008
Côte de Beaune. Domaine-bottled: Marquis D'Angerville
In original carton
Tasting note: Game, leather, forest floor and black tea and peat smokiness are prominent in the nose of dAngervilles 2008 Volnay Clos des Ducs in a way not approached by any of its siblings. Similarly, bittersweet, iris-like inner-mouth floral perfume lends a dimension dear to lovers of Volnay that was not in evidence in other d'Angerville 2008s, at least at this stage. These distinctions noted, there is red berry profusion here, too, and a sappy, energetic overall impression, encompassing a gripping finish, and with mineral diversity chalk, salt, iodine, alkali, and I-dont-know-what that helps guarantee that this firmly and finely structured Volnay will remain dazzlingly complex, if handsomely lean, for the next 15 or more years.
