Lucien Le Moine Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chenes 2021 Volume:750ML There is a seductive texture

There is a seductive texture to the supple medium-bodied flavors that possess fine mid-palate density before culminating in a dusty and palate coating finish

and wonderfully ripe tannin in the intense finish that must last for 40+ seconds

Here the nose is also discreet and brooding with incredible aromatic breadth that includes similar violet notes but the fruit profile is more black and red than blue plus a kaleidoscopic array of spice elements

This will live for decades and need at least 10 to 15 to be approachable with pleasure

By contrast the elegant and refined flavors are a good deal more reserved that are like silk on the mid-palate though the hugely long and moderately finish tightens up in a real rush
