Score 91-93/100 · Drink 2018-2035, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Apr 2016

The 2014 Volnay 1er Cru Caillerets has a very mineral-driven bouquet in the making, perhaps the most complex of Lucien Le Moine's Volnays this vintage. The palate is very harmonious with a keen line of acidity, masculine and structured, tart red cherry fruit with a citrus finish mixed with a hint of blueberry. This is excellent - a Volnay with genuine pedigree.

Healthy deep red. Compelling, nuanced nose combines redcurrant, cherry, spices, leather and a whiff of purple flowers. Plush and sweet but with perfectly integrated rocky minerality energizing the middle palate. The deepest of these 2014s to this point. Finishes with noble tannins and superb persistence. Near-grand cru class and complexity here. Saouma has long referred to Caillerets as "the best red wine terroir of the Côte de Beaune_" and he can support that claim with this stunner.
