There's just one cuvée of 2021 Volnay Village chez Lafarge this year, and it's an attractive wine, exhibiting aromas of raspberries, rose petals and loamy soil, followed by a medium-bodied, fleshy and mouthwatering palate.

The 2020 Volnay Village opens in the glass with notes of plums and sweet red berries mingled with peonies and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, deep and perfumed, with lively acids and powdery, melting tannins, it's beautifully vibrant and refined.

The 2019 Volnay Village is showing nicely unwinding in the glass with aromas of plums, violets, raw cocoa, spices and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, supple and charming, it's bright and lively, with a sumptuous core of fruit and a mineral finish.

The 2018 Volnay Village reveals lovely aromas of dark berries, peonies and earthy forest floor. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, lively and succulent, with fine, powdery tannins and a mineral finish.

Bursting with aromas of violets, rose petal and sweet wild berries, the 2017 Volnay Village is medium-bodied, silky and elegant, with a lively core of juicy fruit, melting tannins and a pure finish. If the Vendanges Sélectionées bottling is built for the cellar, this will deliver immense pleasure in its youth.
