Volnay Les Caillerets 2005 from Michel Lafarge presents a layered aromatic profile with pronounced notes of red fruit, alongside scents of violets and nuanced spice characters. The palate reveals a harmonious balance between delicate fruit and underlying earthiness, framed by a touch of oak influence. The structure is marked by firm tannins, which lend to its capacity for ageing. Michel Lafarge, a revered name in Burgundy, has been dedicated to meticulous vineyard practices and traditional winemaking since the 19th century, contributing significantly to the region`s heritage.

Vinous
Deep red with ruby highlights. Distinctly purple aromas of blackberry, violet and menthol. Silky on entry, then considerably subtler and suaver than the Chateau des Ducs, with lovely finesse of texture and superb building fruit. Highly concentrated, young and impeccably balanced Volnay, finishing with sweet tannins and a whiplash of fruit. Much more accessible today than the Chateau des Ducs, but this too will reward extended cellaring.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2008
