2015 Thierry & Pascal Matrot Volnay Santenots Premier Cru
$75 bottle 92 points Allen Meadows - Burghound “A markedly spicy and floral nose reveals notes of violet, lilac, sandalwood, Asian-style tea and black raspberry scents. The notably finer but also bigger and richer flavors exhibit ample minerality on the detailed, driving and distinctly powerful finish. This is more imposingly scaled than it usually is and is going to require at least some cellar time to more completely harmonize and realize its full potential. Well worth checking out.”
