Tasting notes
The 2010 Volnay Mitans reveals lovely sweetness and inner perfume to match its round, expressive fruit. The Mitans has a sense of poise that is quite promising, along with a touch more depth and fleshiness than the Aussy. Silky tannins frame the suave finish.

The 2010 Volnay Mitans reveals lovely sweetness and inner perfume to match its round, expressive fruit. The Mitans has a sense of poise that is quite promising, along with a touch more depth and fleshiness than the Aussy. Silky tannins frame the suave finish. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2030. I continue to be impressed with the wines Benjamin Leroux is making under his own label. Leroux sources fruit from a number of top vineyards in the region. The wines are made in a facility Leroux shares with Nicolas Rossignol in the center of town. Unfortunately the 2010 Bonnes-Mares was too reduced to evaluate.
