Robert Ampeau & Fils Volnay Santenots 2005
Ampeau only releases their wines when they feel ready, and the 2005 Santenots shows why their patience matters. From one of Burgundy’s most powerful and long-lived vintages, this Volnay carries deeper fruit and more structure than usual — black cherry, plum skin, and warm spice — alongside the vineyard’s signature perfume. The tannins are still firm but fine, with that chalky Meursault-side mineral line underneath. It’s entering a gorgeous window now, showing both muscle and polish, and has plenty of runway left in the cellar.
