Clos de la Chapelle Volnay Les Taillepieds Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru (750ML)

From Volnay

Vintage: 2019
Description: 93 Bh / 93 Ws / 91-94 Jm. Tasting note: This had just been bottled and was showing the effects as the nose was moderately reduced though I would not expect it to linger unduly. Otherwise there is excellent volume, intensity and richness to the concentrated medium-bodied flavors that evidence focused power on the compact, youthfully austere and built-to-age finish. This excellent mineral-driven effort is textbook Taillepieds. Sweet Spot. Outstanding –Allen Meadows, Burghound. A high-pitched red, evoking kirsch, strawberry, boysenberry, rose and spice flavors. Elegant in profile and sleek, with excellent tension and structure. The fruit persists on the long aftertaste, picking up a mineral element and echoing the spice. Best from 2025 through 2042. 62 cases made, 20 cases imported. - Bs, Wine Spectator. From very old vines which yielded 24 hl/ha. Not racked yet. Clear bright purple with a very high-class nose. A surge of really intense deep fresh raspberry fruit, a little richer at the back, flirts with chocolate notes, but decides against, just enough acidity. Tasted: October 2020. –Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
