Lovely fresh, mineral style. Cut and definition, not at all soupy. Lovely rich fruit, but it is because of the crystalline definition that it all works. L&S (Dec 2010)

The 2009 Volnay Les Chevrets bursts from the glass with racy dark red fruit, flowers, minerals and graphite. The 2009 caresses the palate with tons of radiance yet there is an underlying tension and vibrancy that is compelling. An intense, palate-staining finish rounds things out in style. This is a very, very young 2009. Rating: 91 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)

(from 25+ year old vines). Moderate reduction is strong enough to completely hide the fruit though the beautifully detailed, fresh and vibrant middle weight flavors don’t lack for energy or punch on the almost pungently mineral-infused finish that possesses a velvety and seductive texture. There is good power but there is also a delicate side to this effort. 2017+ Rating: 91 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (May 2011)

This Volnay has an adorable bouquet, so pure and well defined, lending it a Vosne-like allure. The palate is smooth and silky on the entry, very finely balanced with a subtle, almost understated finish that has a wonderful citric edge. Very fine.

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
