Kasia Sobiesiak - The Wine Front
Red plum, dark chocolate, powdery texture, fine cocoa dust of tannins, cherry a la kirsch, pure dark dark chocolate finish. Powerful and elegant.

Neal Martin - Vinous
The 2022 Volnay Les Mitans 1er Cru is quite reticent on the nose at first, though well-defined, slightly more earthy than the Village Cru. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit, mulberry, raspberry, marmalade and a touch of Chinese 5-spice towards its fleshy finish. Drink over the next decade.
