Floral and fresh on the nose, with a lightness and brightness of expression despite its considerable fullness. Succulent balance, white currants and greengages, acidity giving excellent length. L&S (Dec 2007)

Here the nose is completely different with a mildly sauvage mix of herb, earth, melon and a touch of the exotic that dissolves into round, supple and solidly rich flavors that display a very subtle touch of finishing minerality on the sappy finale. This should drink well almost immediately. 2009+ Rating: 88 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jun 2008)

Citrus and hay notes. A rich and full mouthfeel is balanced by good acidity. Good to very good. From 2008.Sarah Marsh MW, The Burgundy Briefing (Jan 2008)

Domaine Henri Boillot

A domaine which dates to 1885, but which began properly in the early years of the 20th century under the current Henri's grandfather (also Henri). His son, Jean, was the one who really developed it. Henri arrived in 1975 and worked his way up, becoming the winemaker. In 2000 he began the building of the new winery at the bottom of Meursault, and he then bought out his brother and sister to keep the domaine as one, renaming it from 'Domaine Jean Boillot' to 'Domaine Henri Boillot' to avoid confusion with his brother Jean-Marc's domaine.

The Domaine totals around 14 hectares, with roughly equal surfaces of red and white, and of which just under 4ha is the Monopole vineyard of Clos de la Mouchère, a walled enclave within the premier Cru Puligny Perrières. The 2017 vintage saw the arrival of two new parcels of Grand Cru red, in Échezeaux and Latricières Chambertin
