Volnay Champs 1er Cru 1999

The Volnay Champans 1er Cru 1999 from Domaine Marquis d'Angerville is a remarkable wine that impressively embodies the elegance and finesse of the Premier Cru vineyards in Volnay. In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red color that remains vibrant and enticing despite its age. The nose is complex and seductive, with a bouquet that slowly opens up to reveal a multitude of aromas. Initially, ripe red fruits such as cherries and raspberries dominate, followed by subtle notes of plums and wild strawberries. These fruity notes are complemented by spicy hints of cinnamon, cloves, and a hint of vanilla. A fine earthy minerality and light floral notes of violets and dried roses add additional depth and complexity to the aroma.
On the palate, the Volnay Champans 1999 is wonderfully balanced and elegant. The tannins are fine and supple, perfectly integrated, and offer excellent structure. The fruit flavors are intense and harmonious, supported by a lively acidity that lends the wine freshness and vitality. Secondary aromas of leather, dried herbs, and a hint of smoke reflect the wine's advanced maturity and add additional complexity. The finish is long and persistent, with an elegant aftertaste of red fruits and spicy notes that linger on the tongue.
