Reviews & Scores
Domaine Lafarge is a top producer within Volnay, and this is one the AC’s best sites. Great colour and aromas full of spices and red fruits. There is plenty of complexity and character here with a lovely softness to the fruit. Sweet, some leafy notes, good acidity, beautifully integrated oak. Elegant, rich and well-balanced, this has lift as well as density and is undoubtedly a fine.

Sporting a medium to dark ruby/purple color, the 2003 Volnay Clos des Chenes (red) explodes from the glass with spices, rose petals, dark cherries, and blueberries. Seemingly the ripest of the Volnays, it expands on the palate with copious quantities of candied black fruits, cassis liqueur, tar, and licorice. Medium-bodied, it displays outstanding depth and an extended finish that exhibits additional waves of fruit as well as loads of ripe tannin. - WA
