Very light color in the glass. Earthy, vegetal aroma with a light floral note and no obvious barrel notes. Surprising for a 6-year XA. Cooked agave still present in the flavor even after 6 years in barrel. This one also has a distinct tannic character. Nice long, warm finish. Tasted this side-by-side with the Don Vicente XA and would say I prefer the DV. And, when you consider the considerable price difference I would definitely choose the Don Vicente. This is not to take anything away from the Volans. Just my personal preference. 2023-12-24 2023 Annual Christmas Eve XA Tasting
