Tasting notes
Boillot’s Bâtard is a stunning wine in 2020. It has remarkable citrus length and pithy breadth, incredible tension and freshness. It’s tightly wound right now, yet the potential of this wine is clear, ready to unleash its power with time in bottle. While this wine once saw 100% new oak, in 2020 there’s maximum 50% – putting the spotlight on the year’s stunning fruit purity.

Mid lemon yellow. There is a slight reduction to the nose. All the weight appears on the palate with a gorgeously sensual deep white fruit, not heavy at all. White pepper. There is no sign of the reduction on the palate. An exceptional example with more tension at the back, great potential for the long term. Guillaume Boillot has dialled down to 50% new wood here and that is plenty.
