"I absolutely love this wine is regular format, where it is only a year or two away from its apogee. In magnum, it is at least four or five years behind in development, and though it may ultimately be even better in this size format, patience is still required. The nose is really pretty tight still, reluctantly offering up scents of cassis, tar, tobacco, woodsmoke, herbs, minerals and cedary wood. On the palate the wine is full-bodied and deep, but quite bound up in its structural elements of tannin and acidity today. The finish is long, bright and tannic. This will be a stellar bottle of Volnay . . ."
