2018 Volnay Premier Cru Caillerets Marquis d'Angerville, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2018 Volnay Premier Cru Caillerets, Marquis d'Angerville

Aromas of red berries, cherries, dark chocolate and peonies mingle with nuances of soil and raw cocoa, introducing the 2018 Volnay 1er Cru Caillerets, a medium to full-bodied, deep and nicely concentrated wine that's fine-boned and elegant, with powdery tannins and a chalky, mineral finish. - William Kelley, Jan. 2020

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2018 Volnay Premier Cru Caillerets, Marquis d'Angerville

This is the first wine to exhibit any appreciable wood influence and even here it is a background element on the markedly ripe aromas of cassis plum liqueur and exotic tea-scented nose. The strikingly refined middle weight flavors brim with minerality on the rich but lilting finale where the only reproach is a subtle touch of warmth. Lovely stuff though make no mistake, it should amply reward extended cellaring. - Allen Meadows, Apr. 2020

Vinous - 2018 Volnay Premier Cru Caillerets, Marquis d'Angerville

The 2018 Volnay Les Caillerets 1er Cru includes an additional 0.23-hectare adjoining parcel of old vines purchased in 2013 that represents a 50% increase in acreage. It has a more reticent bouquet compared to its siblings, demanding coaxing from the glass to revealing morello cherry, raspberry preserve and rose petal aromas. Hints of blood orange develop with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with darker berry fruit than d’Angerville’s other Volnay, and a little spicier, displaying impressive depth and grip toward the finish. It will require 5–6 years in bottle. Excellent. - Neal Martin, Jan. 2020
