The Volnay Fremiets Clos de la Rougeotte exhibits a medium-to-dark ruby color, an attractive nose of sweet red cherries, and a medium-bodied, and juicy character with raspberry, red cherry, mineral, stone, and currant-like flavors. This refined, feminine wine should be drunk over the next 4 years.
Bouchard's qualitative resurgence continues. It is extremely gratifying to see the efforts put forth by Joseph Henriot, this negociant's new owner and the talented duo of Misters Hervet and Prost, respectively the firm's director and wine-maker.
