concentrated yet impressively refined wine with plenty of inner mouth perfume as well as an abundance of palate coating old vine sap that serves to cushion the still quite firm tannic spine on the strikingly persistent finish

since 2003

offering intense black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that unfurl slowly and become sweeter with aeration

Marquis d'Angerville, Volnay Taillepieds Vintage:2022 concentrated yet impressively refined wine(from a 1. 07 ha parcel of 35+ year old vines). Here the reticent nose is at once ripe yet cool with a lovely layered quality to the mix of violet, spice, dark berry liqueur and Asian style tea aromas. The super sleek, intense, mineral driven and refined medium weight flavors that culminate in a very serious, youthfully austere and built to age finish that just goes on and on. A classic Taillepieds that will require extended patience. (92 94) 2032+
