Volnay Taillepieds 1996 from Domaine Marquis d`Angerville is a Premier Cru red Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune. The 1996 Burgundy vintage is characterised by high acidity, resulting in wines known for their structural longevity and precision. This mature example exhibits a highly defined and structured profile, presenting aromas of red cherry, cranberry, iron and a strong mineral earthiness. The palate is light-to-medium bodied, showcasing a tense, linear focus with firm, persistent tannins and a distinct, racy acidity that carries the complex, savoury flavours through to a long finish.
93 Robert Parker
Produced from yields below 40 hectoliters/hectare , the Volnay Taillepieds exhibits beguiling aromas of black cherries, blackberries, and spices. On the palate, this complex, concentrated, and extracted wine is beautifully refined, sumptuous, yet structured. It is expansive, broad, medium-to-full-bodied, and packed with juicy cassis and blueberries. This well-balanced and fruit-driven wine has an admirably persistent finish which displays loads of ripe tannins. Anticipated maturity. 2000-2006. The score, on a range and in parentheses, indicates that the wine was tasted from barrel. Jacques, Marquis d`Angerville produced stupendous wines in 1996. When we met in mid-November, just a few weeks after the unexpected death of Gerard Potel of Domaine de la Pousse d`Or fame, d`Angerville seemed to be emotionally torn by his excitement over the "excellent millesime" and the sorrow he felt over the loss of his friend and colleague. - Pierre Rovani
