Domaine de Montille - Volnay 1er Cru 'Les Taillepieds' - 2019

Sweet Spot, Outstanding. A super-floral nose seems to have every floral element in the book including a perfumed hint of gardenia that adds a touch of elegance to the exotically spicy aromas of red and black raspberry. The pure and almost painfully intense flavors are like rolling tiny stones around in the mouth while delivering outstanding depth and persistence on the overtly austere, serious and compact finale that leaves zero doubt that this beauty is built-to-age. In a word, terrific. 92-95 Points Allen Meadows, Burghound
