The 2012 Volnay 1er Cru Les Angles comes from a 0.60-hectare parcel, the largest holding in the climat. The nose is very energetic and well defined – plenty of crisp, animated dark cherry and blueberry fruit here bounding about the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip in the mouth. There is good substance, underpinned by quite rigid tannins, but there is plenty of dark berry fruit on the finish to suggest this is a long-term Volnay.
Neal Martin - The Wine Advocate, 30th Dec 2013

The nose here is quite restrained, but suggests a density of fruit should follow on the palate. A fine mineral thread runs right through the deep, dark raspberry fruit and the expected impeccable length is certainly in attendance.
Jasper Morris MW, Berry Bros. & Rudd's Burgundy Director
The Lafarge’s picked from 31st August to 6th September in 2011 and the fruit is fully ripe and balanced in every sense. Very healthy grapes were harvested that hardly required any sorting and gentle extraction has produced some beautifully fine wines which Michel Lafarge compares in quality to his 1952s. If this is the case, our suggested drinking dates would appear to be rather on the conservative side!
