2016 Clos de la Chapelle Volnay Clos de la Chapelle 750ml

Located in Hong Kong

$103.23

SKU 142148-HK Categories ,
Only one of the six barrels used for the 2016 Clos de la Chapelle was new, and this is, to my palate, the single finest vintage of this monopole that the domaine has yet produced! The great nose soars from the glass in a sappy blend of cassis, sweet dark berries, pigeon, raw cocoa, a touch of currant leaf, a gorgeous base of soil tones and just a hint of new oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and shows superb mid-palate depth, with a very elegant and suave attack, lovely backend mineral drive, fine-grained tannins and a long, vibrant and very complex finish. This is a great young bottle of Volnay! 2026-2075. 94+ points, John Gilman
