Sarah Marsh:
It was very reduced so we used a copper coin. It had some effect. It probably needs revisiting,
but it shped some really good potential. The palate has gorgeous, ripe fruit; deep velvet, red,
plumy fruit. Thickly velvet tannins and a slow cadence. Quite densely structured. A rather
sumptuous Volnay. This has weight and density and presence. Score 18 at least. From 2015.
