2005 De Montille Volnay Mitans

A reserved, indeed almost discreet nose of airy, refined and very pure mineral-infused red pinot fruit complements to perfection the equally pure, intense and wonderfully focused middle weight flavors that almost dance across the palate as they're silky and graceful yet possessed with superb punch. This is a classic Volnay that carries outstanding flavor authority with no apparent weight. This could easily surprise to the upside as everything it needs for long evolution is here. Burghound 90-92
