The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Volnay Clos de La Barre has black raspberry and plum aromas. This dense, medium-bodied offering is crammed with black cherries, cassis, and raspberries. It has excellent density of fruit, as well as a long, ripe tannin-filled finish. Drink it between 2004 and 2010. Jun 2001, www.robertparker.com

Lighter color with a nice mix of red and black fruits, medium weight flavors of good intensity and better than average intensity. This is both elegant and nicely balanced. Will drink well early but should have no trouble aging for 7 to 10 years either. Allen Meadows, Burghound Apr01,2001
