2005 Domaine Jaboulet-Vercherre Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes,

[TheEngineer]

This is the first time that I've had this producer and they did just a lovely job on this. Thing is just starting to come around and it has some holding power still, Lovely crunchy red berries, good structure, some smokiness (oak not completely integrated), and while not overbearing (definitely medium body even for this vintage), the wine has a good persistence. It lingers. nicely done.
