2015 - Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Cave des Ducs, Benjamin Leroux

Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 17
(50% vendange entier; not yet racked; from well-drained light clay soil on the top of the slope): Dark red. Sexy nose combines smoky calcaire minerality, spices and a hint of game. Wonderfully silky and sweet in the middle, with hints of spices, game and leather. Very savory wine with a lot of personality, but in need of a racking. This very broad Volnay finishes with substantial dusty tannins.
