Bouchard Pere et Fils, Volnay Caillerets Ancienne Cuvee Carnot other_regions_italy Tight tannins help to stitchVery ripe liqueur like aromas of various black berries are nuanced by plenty of spice and floral elements. There is excellent underlying tension to the beautifully textured medium weight flavors that also brim with sappy dry extract and minerality, all wrapped in a bitter pit fruit finale that offers impressive persistence. This is definitely atypical but the intrinsic class of a fine Caillerets is still present.
