From vines that average 50 years of age. A reserved and inexpressive nose of distinctly ripe red berry fruit and subtle warm earth and underbrush notes where the latter element continues onto the dense, rich and powerful medium full flavors supported by impeccably ripe structure on the energetic and hugely long finish. Like the Brouillards, this is the best Voillot Champans in years as it's blessed with absolutely superb material and knockout length plus the sense of transparency and balance are reference standard. However, this will not be a 'crowd pleaser' young as it will need plenty of time to unfold. *Sweet Spot, Outstanding*
