Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Champans Volany 1er Cru 2020

The 2020 Volnay Les Champans 1er Cru certainly has the most opulent bouquet amongst d'Angerville's '20s with exuberant black cherries, raspberry coulis, hints of fresh fig and black truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with quasi-chalky tannins, taut and fresh, quite saline and poised with a harmonious finish not dissimilar to the Taillepieds. Satisfying persistence here, but in keeping with d'Angerville's other Volnays, it is quite serious in personality and this will oblige cellaring. Quite regal. Drinking window: 2026-2046. Score - 93-95.
