89-91 Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate
The 2014 Volnay Villages lost 70% to 90% of the fruit due to hail damage. It has a crisp, quite seductive bouquet in the making with wild strawberry and raspberry scents, a touch of vanilla in the background.
The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannin. There is nice backbone here, very fine mineralité with tension and poise on the lightly grippy, tarry finish. This is a very fine Volnay Villages from Thomas Bouley.
Drink 2017-2027.
