Vinous (88-90)The 2021 Volnay Village has a bright but classically-styled bouquet with tertiary, tobacco-tinged red fruit, the oak neatly integrated (though there is no new wood here.) The palate is medium-bodied, open and generous with grainy tannins, fine acidity and a saline finish. Maybe a little monochrome compared to other vintages, but it should give a decade's drinking pleasure. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-92)Mid crimson purple. The nose is a little more restrained. Now some lively cherries on the palate with very good grip, a little bit of white pepper, with the fruit returning effortlessly behind. Smoothly charming. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (87-90)Good deep red. At once more reserved and more precise on the nose than the normale, with hints of dark fruits and minerals. Tighter, fresher and more wound-up, with ripe, harmonious acidity. Comes across as riper than the regular village wine, and longer on the aftertaste. The vines that go into this cuvee are located adjacent to premier cru parcels in Volnay. |

Vinous (89+)Saturated dark red with ruby highlights. Black fruit aromas show an almost liqueur-like ripeness. Deep flavors of dark berries and violet, given excellent cut by firm acidity. A serious, youthfully tight wine with a solid tannic spine. I'd give this a good eight years in the cellar. As good a vintage for this cuvee as I can recall. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2009 Volnay Vendanges Selectionnées is a selection of village-level parcels. This is a decidedly centered style of Volnay built on a solid core of fruit. It possesses plenty of mid-palate juiciness, while the fruit has enough sheer density to match the tannins on the finish. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2017 Volnay Vendange Sélectionée comes from vines that lie just below the line of Premier Crus. It has a bright bouquet with wild strawberry, red cherries and a faint, almost ash-like scent. It is very well defined. The palate is quite fleshy and rounded on the entry, finely judged in terms of acidity, with a slightly crunchiness to the texture on the finish, just a dab of white pepper on the aftertaste. Probably one of the most overlooked of Lafarge's Volnays - I suggest you don't. |

Vinous (89-91)The 2018 Volnay "Vendage Sélectionée" is a selection from four parcels below Echards, Pluchots, Jeotte and Grand Champs that is matured in a little new oak. It has a high-toned bouquet of blueberry and raspberry fruit, and little cassis emerges with time in the glass. The palate is sweet and succulent on the entry and very supple in the mouth, delivering black cherries and blueberry toward the finish. Very fine. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2019 Volnay "Vendange Sélectionée" comes from four parcels located just under the Premier Crus that tends to have more complexity and structure. There is a clear difference on the nose compared to the Village Cru with deeper red berry fruit that is certainly more intense. The palate is beautifully balanced with chalky tannins, red fruit with a lovely piquancy on the finish that fans out wonderfully. Superb. |

There is outstanding intensity to the dense and powerful flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the impressively long, balanced and firmly structured finale. This is absolutely terrific for its level and easily boxes above its weight. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-92)(from Mazoyeres) Bright red-ruby. Complex, musky aromas of black cherry, dark chocolate, dried flowers and smoked meat.

Fatter than the premier crus but less showy today, conveying an impression of medicinal reserve and little easy early sweetness. This rather backward wine finishes with plush, palate-saturating tannins and a strong repeating licorice quality, but some emerging dryness limited my enthusiasm. |

Vinous (92)Good full dark red. Tangy, complex, but somewhat reduced nose melds redcurrant, smoked meat and earth. Dense and creamy-sweet, with a lovely mineral lift to the red berry flavors. This is wonderfully lush and silky for the vintage but with vibrancy. The rich finish features sappy brown spices and sneaky persistence, with tannins thoroughly buffered by the wine's material. |

Vinous (90+)Bright medium red. Reticent but aromatic nose combines red berries, burnt orange, minerals, flowers, cardamom and star anise. Enters silky and sweet but ultimately displays less depth and concentration than the captivating nose suggests. Doesn't quite deliver in the middle palate but finishes with good sneaky length and harmonious tannins. Will this expand with time in bottle? |
