plum and mulberry fruit

wrapped in a silky coat of ripe tannins

This silky Barbaresco has the sex appeal to be enjoyed early

but this is still very attractive

In any event

Joseph Voillot, Volnay Fremiets Vintage:2023 plum and mulberry fruit(from vines that average 50+ years of age). Subtle but not invisible wood frames the pungently earthy aromas of ripe red berries, earth and an interesting array of spice and dried orange peel nuances. There is good vibrancy to the sleek and mineral inflected flavors that possess a really lovely mouth feel, all wrapped in a dusty, serious, well balanced and lingering finish where the wood telegraphed by the nose resurfaces. 91 2023+
