Domaine Poulleau Père & Fils 2018 – Volnay

The nose is aromatic, racy and offers a fine power, a good definition as well as elegance and a beautiful finesse of the grain. It reveals notes of crushed cassis, pulpy blackberry, small notes of small pulpy blue fruits associated with fine touches of fleshy/crushed strawberry as well as hints of minerality, camphor, liquorice and a very discreet hint of spices. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, gourmandize, a fine acidulous frame as well as suavity, roundness, straightness, a beautiful racy minerality, a fine freshness, a certain deepness and a fine unctuosity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy/juicy blackberry, violet plum, small notes of raspberry associated with touches of cherry, violet as well as hints of liquorice, a racy minerality, an imperceptible hint of cardamom and black tea. Good length. A very fine chew on the finish/persistence. Tannins are elegant and fine. An harmonious wine.
