Bright, dark garnet. Jewelly fruit. At first a little stinky but then it opened out to something very opulent. There is real old-burgundy richness here. Really very gorgeous. Lots of life. Still lots to give. (JR)

The ruby-colored 1998 Volnay Santenots is intensely aromatic and flavorful. Spicy black cherry scents lead to a medium-bodied character that coats the palate with stones and fresh black fruits. This silky-textured yet reasonably structured wine should be consumed over the next 7 years. Importer: Ex Cellars, Solvang, CA; tel (805) 686-9153.
