another wine that took several years to be the least bit pleasurable

This is a strong showing

remaining incredibly young and primary and only just beginning to hit its stride

Nicolas Rossignol, Volnay Santenots Vintage:2019 another wine that took several(from Santenots Dessous). Very ripe aromas of cassis, black berry liqueur, violet and anise precede the equally broad shouldered flavors that also coat the palate with dry extract on the powerful, hugely long and very serious finish that is shaped by a markedly firm tannic spine. This is a buy and forget you own it wine as I would suggest not touching a bottle for at least 10 years. With that said, this is most impressive.
