The 2015 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes has an understated bouquet with blackberry, raspberry and cold stone aromas, more introspective than the Clos de la Barre, yet detailed. The palate is medium-bodied with supple red cherry and strawberry fruit, quite forward and generous; here, the new oak showing just a little obviously towards the finish (there is one new barrel and one used - my staple was actually from the one-year-old barrel). I am sure that will enmesh with 3-4 years requisite bottle age.
