Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Taillepieds Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2008

Ratings on Delectable

Jay Kline Delectable Pro

Brought to a dinner with some guests visiting from Piemonte. The 2008 “Taillepieds” pours a deep ruby with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no obvious staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with tart and slightly underripe strawberry, cherry, mushrooms, red flowers, varnish (yeah, there’s some VA) stony earth and delicate baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin, medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The body is fit and the finish is long and full of energy. This is a really attractive beauty; the sort that you might feel compelled to apologize to for gawking. And, while I found this to be really tasty at nearly 16 years of age, it clearly has a long way to go. Drink now through 2033+.

Tastes like ok Gamay from an ok vintage. Granitic. Uninspiring.

In a good spot. Wine fully integrated with nice silky tannin, cherry to dark cherry flavors, minerality, and nice medium body for a pinot. Good juicy but not tart acidity.
