Guillaume remarks that hot years are good for Latricières, which is quite high up. Extraordinary finesse of texture, rich and voluminous, supple and mouthfilling, balanced and long. L&S (Oct 2019)

A discreetly floral-suffused nose gracefully displays ripe yet cool aromas of dark berry fruit liqueur, spice and a suggestion of the sauvage. There is very good density to the suave and energetic middle weight plus flavors that brim with minerality on the linear, focused and lingering finish. This needs to develop more depth but given the firm supporting tannic spine, it should be able to do that without undue concern. Drinking range: 2033 - Rating: 94 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Apr 2020)
One of the high points of the range is the 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, a striking wine that exhibits scents of cassis, forest floor, wild berries, dark chocolate, warm spices and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping but also beautifully defined, with a bright spine of acidity, it's concentrated and penetrating. Drinking range: 2028 - 2055 Rating: 95 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2020)
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
