2016 Volnay, Taillepieds, 1er Cru, Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur, Burgundy

The vineyard needs no introduction, and Bitouzet-Prieur have holdings of 0.72 hectares, planted in 1971, 1983, 1997. A rocky, saline and mineral wine with great energy; it is presently incredibly closed and tightly wound, but the potential is there for a great vin de garde.
