2013 Domaine Pousse d'Or Volnay Clos des 60 Ouvrees 1er Cru

Here the expressive nose is almost as elegant and even spicier with its dark pinot fruit, sandalwood and floral-scented aromas. There is the same lovely texture to the vibrant medium weight flavors that possess admirable mid-palate concentration before terminating in a palate coating, youthfully austere and firmly structured finish. This will clearly need plenty of cellar time to soften the firm tannic spine yet it should be approachable after only 5 to 7 years.

Bright, deep red. Captivating aromas of dark fruits and violet. Tightly coiled on the palate, offering a distinctly sappy quality and excellent grip to the flavors of black raspberry and violet. Boasts bracing acidity and firm underlying minerality but avoids coming off as angular. Finishes with sneaky length and lift.
