Tasting notes
Aromatically, the medium to dark ruby-colored 1997 Volnay Taillepieds offers dark plums, violets, and candied black cherries. It is an expansive, medium to full-bodied wine with great concentration, breadth, and richness. This is a thick, satin textured, muscular, and well-structured wine. Stones, black fruits, and fresh herbs can be found in its fresh, yet plump flavor profile. Drink it over the next 7+ years.
