On the nose, the 2013 Volnay Les Carelles 1er Cru is the most backward of Thomas Bouley's 2013s, only reluctantly opening with crisp strawberry fruit and rose petal aromas. The palate is a different kettle of fish, marked by excellent sapidity, quite dense and focused, fanning out with gusto towards the persistent finish. I remember Thomas describing this as his baby. It seems to be growing up nicely. Tasted at Goedhuis & Co.'s annual Burgundy tasting in London.In Bond€528.00 -

(100% destemmed): Bright medium red. Subdued on the nose but clearly darker than the Caillerets, conveying fresh, higher-pitched aromas of black cherry, violet and licorice. This wine's sweetness and richness give it lovely early appeal. Generous on the front half but then distinctly more linear on the back end, finishing with a firm spine of tannins and a lingering redcurrant suggestion of red soil. Bouley noted that these vines were hit hard by hail but today it's the wine's sweetness that stands out, rather than any dryness.In Bond€434.00 -

The 2018 Volnay Village will have around 20% new oak in the final blend. This feels a little smudged on the nose, with blurry red berry fruit.

The 2022 Volnay Village offers up aromas of cassis, cherries, rose petals and baking chocolate, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and textural palate with good density and structure. It's the usual blend combining holdings in the rich, clay soils of lieux-dits Poisots, Famines and Cros Martin—which bring fat and flesh—with the thinner, whiter soils of Ez Blanches above the Clos de Chênes—that lend the wine its tension and relief.In Bond€395.00 -

The 2022 Volnay Clos de la Cave now incorporates some younger vines that were planted with high-quality selections of "Pinot Fin," which seems to only have amplified its floral, ethereal style. Wafting from the glass with notes of peonies, orange zest, rose petals and violets mingled with sweet red berries, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a suave, textural profile and a long, mineral finish. As readers may remember, it derives from a sloping parcel just below the tree line that's shaded earlier in the evening than climats situated lower down the slope.In Bond€496.00
