Volnay Clos du Château des Ducs Michel Lafarge 2009 is a refined expression of this monopole vineyard, capturing the elegance and depth for which the estate is renowned. Michel Lafarge, a revered producer, transitioned to organic viticulture in 1998 and adopted biodynamic principles in 2000, ensuring a pure reflection of terroir. The 2009 vintage offers vibrant red fruit layered with delicate spice and earthy complexity. Silky tannins and refined structure provide balance, showcasing both Volnay’s finesse and Lafarge’s signature precision.

The estate’s 2009 Volnay Clos du Chateau des Ducs saturates the palate with its deep, persistent fruit. The aromas and flavors build in the glass towards the rich, multi-dimensional finish. This shows marvelous staying power and fabulous overall balance. The Clos du Chateau des Ducs is more overtly fruit-driven and structured but perhaps a touch less aromatically expressive than the Mitans. Anticipated maturity. 2019-2039.

Rather pale red. Highly aromatic, expressive scents of redcurrant, cherry, spices and flowers. Wonderfully suave and fine-grained, in the typically feminine style of this wine--and classic Volnay. Lovely pliant red fruit and licorice flavors saturate the mouth, with a saline element adding interest on the long finish. Shows an attractive light touch and supple tannins. This will go truffley with bottle aging.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2012
