This wine is from the barrel that I purchased at the Hospices in 2015.  The grapes come from Santenots du Millieu and from Les Plures, in the heart of Volnay Santenots, on the slope.  In 2015 they produced a wine with concentrated blackberry fruit underscored by plenty of smoke and spice aromas from the cask aging.  The influence of the maturation, however, has diminished in recent months, bringing the wine back into a pleasant, if powerful balance, with a solid mineral underpinning, firm tannins, and impressive length.
