Burghound (Allen Meadows) 90-92
“This is distinctly more restrained with its layered assortment of plum, dark berries, earth and pretty spice elements. There is a really lovely mouth feel to the beautifully well-delineated middle weight flavors that possess plenty of minerality on the dusty and focused and slightly fleshier finale. Lovely.” (April, 2016)
Vinous Media (Stephen Tanzer) 91
“Good dark red. Very ripe aromas of blackberry liqueur, licorice and molten dark chocolate. Plush, ripe and sweet in the mouth, but a bit less refined and primary than the 2015 version, In spite of showing a cool minty nuance. Finishes with serious but nicely ripe tannins.” (March, 2017)
Wine Advocate (Neal Martin) 92
“The 2014 Volnay 1er Cru Fremiets has a glorious nose that has mustered a little more va-va-voom since I tasted it from barrel last year. It lets rip with Morello cherries, fresh strawberry and a pastille-like purity. It is a very winsome bouquet, well defined and gains intensity on the glass. The palate is more conservative than the aromatics. It is well structured, the tannins slightly chalky in texture, the acidity nicely judged with a gentle grip on the finish. Whilst it does not have the persistence of the best premier crus from d'Angerville, there is an effortless nature to this Volnay.” (April, 2016)
