Antonio Galloni

"Saturated medium ruby. Superripe, almost liqueur-like aromas of black plum, black cherry and black raspberry. Thicker and sweeter than the Clos des Chenes, but still holding a lot in reserve. Chewy and deep; very rich but not at all heavy. Finishes very long, with a serious tannic structure for aging." —Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

91 points

"The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Volnay Champans offers highly expressive and pure red cherry aromas, On the palate, it is medium-bodied and has an excellent density of cherry, blackberry, and cassis fruit. It is a firm, concentrated, structured wine that should be at its best between 2004 and 2012." —Pierre Rovani

Wine Spectator

91 points

"Firmly structured, intense and showing good sweet fruit character on the midpalate. Impressive concentration of blackberry, sweet oak and toasted notes. A big wine that will need time to come around."
