2009 Volnay Taillepieds, 1er Cru, Domaine Marquis d'AngervilleA ripe yet cool nose features notes of cherry liqueur, raspberry, stone and soil tones, all of which can be found on the rich, generous and beautifully well detailed middle weight flavors that exude an equally fine minerality on the driving, punch and strikingly long finish where the hallmark touch of austerity in a young Taillepieds is in evidence. A lovely effort of class and grace that is less forbidding than usual. *Sweet Spot, Outstanding*
