Rossignol's 2019 Volnay Village derives from five parcels: four situated just below the premiers crus and one high on the slope. Wafting from the glass with scents of wild berries, petals, raw cocoa and forest floor, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and succulent, with bright acids, fine tannins and a saline finish.

The 2017 Volnay Village exhibits aromas of spicy blackcurrants and dried flowers, followed by a medium-bodied, deep and tight-knit palate, with promising depth but chalky structuring tannin which will need some time. If the slight asperity it displayed from barrel has resolved by the time it's bottled, my score will look conservative.

A blend of five different vineyards, four of them from clayey soils at the bottom of the incline, the 2016 Volnay Village has an elegant raspberry and cranberry-scented nose with subtle freshly tilled earth/loam scents underneath. The palate is well balanced with juicy ripe tannin, crisp cranberry and wild strawberry fruit with an almost Pommard-like structure on the chalky finish. Very fine.

Nicolas Rossignol's 2015 Volnay Village is superb, offering up a lovely bouquet of smoky red and black fruit, dark chocolate, violets and grilled squab. On the palate, the wine is velvety, medium to full-bodied and succulent, with a deep core, a fine-grained chassis of tannins and a penetrating finish. This Volnay—which was almost lubriciously decadent from barrel—has already shut down since bottling and its structural elements are beginning to come to the fore, so plan on cellaring this for several years before pulling corks in earnest.

The 2014 Volnay Village, which includes fruit from declassified Taillepieds plus five villages cru, has a crisp fresh cranberry and Morello cherry nose. There is a pastille-like purity here. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy red berry fruit, nicely weighted on the entry but a little monotone towards the finish that at the moment, cuts away rapidly, though I think it will fill out by bottling.
