Henri has bought the old Domaine Clerget, from which this parcel comes. Dark colour, and deep dark cassis style fruit. Surprising, Gevrey-like cassis flavours to the fruit. Mineral dryness and fine tension draw out the finish. L&S (Dec 2011)

The 2010 Volnay Les Santenots is the most refined and impeccable of these 2010 Volnays from Henri Boillot. Ripe, silky tannins buffer the fruit in this sumptuous, impeccably refined Volnay. Floral notes wrap around the deep, persistent finish. Rating: 91-93 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)
Good full, deep red. Reticent nose hints at musky black cherry, dark chocolate and Moroccan spices. Silky on entry, then sweet and vibrant if a bit unforthcoming today. Very fine-grained wine, but this will require aging to deliver its full personality. Finishes dense, juicy and very long, with perfectly enrobed velour-like tannins.

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 Mouch猫re, a walled enclave within the premier Cru Puligny Perri猫res. The 2017 vintage saw the arrival of two new parcels of Grand Cru red, in 脡chezeaux and Latrici猫res Chambertin
