The type of reduction that the Burgundians call bourgeon de cassis dominates the fruit today

This is an excellent Volnay villages and one that is also highly recommended

the mid-palate and finish is packed with the layers of dense

firm and hugely long finish

This is very impressive but shows less sangiovese perfume than usual

Beaucastel, Chateauneuf du Pape Roussanne Vv other_regions The type of reduction thatButtery, fleshy, and a very solid backup of apricot and peach melba. Lengthy and succulent and substantial. Such tremendous concentration on the finish, but without being too forceful and headbanging. Delightful to drink now, but could age for decades, on previous form. (RH)
