Volnay 1er Cru Les Mitans Domaine de Montille 2021

Tasting Notes

The 2021 Volnay Les Mitans 1er Cru is 100% whole clusters this year. That obviously comes across on the nose and slightly obscures the terroir expression, but there is just about sufficient fruit. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, crunchy dark berry fruit laced with Earl Grey and cracked black pepper with a short finish. Brisk and lively, though not long-term. Drinking window: 2024-2036. (Neal Martin,vinous.com,5 janvier 2023)
