Notes:

By Allen Meadows
(Domaine Marquis dAngerville Volnay "Clos des Ducs" 1er 1er Cru Red) After the brilliance of the Champans I wasn't sure if the Clos des Ducs could surpass it but it did if only just. A sublimely pure and refined nose of pure extract of red pinot fruit also adds a gorgeous array of stone, earth, rose petal and spice hints. The delicious, detailed and mineral-driven flavors possess a palpable sense of energy as well as almost painful intensity on the impeccably well-balanced and driving finish that is an exercise in grace and harmony. It's not yet clear whether this will go down as one of the all-time great vintages for Clos des Ducs but it will certainly be among them as this is simply terrific. (Drink starting 2025)93-96points

By John Gilman
(Volnay Clos des Ducs- Domaine Marquis dAngerville) The 2010 Clos des Ducs had just been racked shortly before my visit and was not as on form as the last couple of wines, but its quality was still quite evident. The nose is a complex blend of cherries, blood orange, pomegranate, coffee, really complex soil tones and a nice base of new vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite pure on the attack, with impressive nascent complexity, suave tannins and fine length and grip on the focused and soil-driven finish.
