Tasting Note by John Gilman "The old vine Bourgogne Rouge from Domaine Voillot is produced from three parcels of vines (in two lieux à dits) that were planted respectively in 1953, 1966 and 1972. The wine comes in at thirteen percent octane this year and offers up a lovely, red fruity nose of cherries, strawberries, a hint of quince, woodsmoke, lovely spice tones and a fine base of soil elements. On the palate the wine is bright, fullish and tangy, with a pretty core of fruit, good soil signature, ripe, moderate tannins, bouncy acids and a long, still fairly youthful finish. Like most top flight Bourgogne Rouge bottlings, this needs a few years in the cellar to blossom, but it will be excellent in due course."
