2015 Volnay, En Caillerets, 1er Cru, Benjamin Leroux, Burgundy australia anise and baking spicesHere, the nose is notably more complex with its broad ranging aromas of spiced plum, dark currant, violet and an interesting whisper of orange peel. There is a wonderfully refined mouth feel to the intense, vibrant and mineral driven medium bodied flavours with a sophisticated texture that transfers over to the serious, built to age and hugely persistent finish. This is a Caillerets of class and grace but one that is going to require bottle age first.
