Mid crimson purple. This is usually my favourite grand cru chez Boillot, but for once I am finding the nose a bit more backward. A touch of wood, no shortage of fruit but undemonstrative. On the palate it is all there with a firmer structure, a wealth of powerful predominantly red berry fruit, an alpine strawberry, a couple of darker and wilder notes. Drinking range: 2030 - 2036 Rating: 93-96 Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Oct 2022)

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

Pinot Noir.
A very stony and mineral vineyard. Lovely nose - bright and pure with a ruby-like clarity to the top-note, it's slimline, focused, with 'enough' concentration and weight. Very linear and pure.
