The 2009 Volnay Clos Des Angles is another of the more fleeting wines in the lineup. Crushed flowers, dried cherries, mint, licorice and spices come together nicely in the glass, yet the overall impression is one of fragility. The Clos des Angles looks to be a fairly early maturing wine from d’Angerville. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017. I tasted the 2009s from D’Angerville twice recently, once at the winery in December 2011 and a second time in my office in New York. The Volnay, Volnay 1er and Volnay Champans were all less impressive than the first time I tasted those wines, just after botting. Time will tell if the wines are going through a closed phase today, or if I overrated them the first time around. Importer: Diageo Chateau & Estate Wines, Napa CA; tel. (707) 299-2600
