Score 93/100 · Drink 2020-2035, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Sep 2018

The 2016 Fleurie Clos Vernay wafts from the glass with a nuanced bouquet of raspberries, wild plums, dark chocolate and loamy soil. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, tangy and quite concentrated, framed by elegantly fine-grained tannins that nevertheless suggest this is a wine that will go the distance, much like the family's Volnays.

On granite and quartz. Peppery nose. Real drive and energy. Lots of juice and minerality. Not yet ready. (JR)
