Domaine Bouchard Pere & Fils - Volnay 1er Cru 'Caillerets' Ancienne Cuvee Carnot - 2021

An exuberantly spicy and overtly floral nose is airy, cool and elegant. Unlike some of the other reds in the range with very low yields, the mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors reflects the expected density while remaining sophisticated, refined and classy on the beautifully persistent, mineral-driven and youthfully austere finale. This is terrific and should age effortlessly. 92-94 Points, Sweet Spot Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound
