Unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet wild berries, plums, raw cocoa and sweet spices, Bouley's 2020 Volnay Village is medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with an ample core of rich but vibrant fruit and a harmonious, complete profile, concluding with a saline finish. As usual, this cuvée unites the rich, clay soils of lieux-dits Poisots, Famines and Cros Martin with the thinner, whiter soils of Ez Blanches above the Clos de Chênes, delivering a complementary blend.

Aromas of raspberries and plums mingled with hints of orange rind, sweet spices and forest floor introduce Bouley's 2019 Volnay Village, a medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless wine that's lively and penetrating, concluding with a long, saline finish. As I've written before, this cuvée blends the rich, clay soils of lieux-dits Poisots, Famines and Cros Martin with the thinner, whiter soils of Ez Blanches above the Clos de Chênes; but in 2019, the wine's tone is set by Ez Blanches, even if it only amounts to one-third of the blend.

The 2018 Volnay Village mingles notes of smoky blackberries and cassis with rich soil tones and spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, it's generous and enveloping, built around succulent acids and powdery tannins. More broader-shouldered than the charming and immediate 2017, this will merit a bit of bottle age.

Bursting with aromas of sweet red berries, cherries, dried flowers and raw cocoa, the 2017 Volnay Village is medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, its succulent core of fruit framed by exquisitely refined tannins and lively acids. This is a caressing, elegant Volnay that exemplifies all the virtues for which the appellation is renowned.
