The 2011 Meursault 1er Cru Clos les Bouchere is a monopole on shallow, chalky soils at a steeper incline than Porusot below. It has a heavenly nose of oyster shell and apricot blossom with astonishing delineation and precision. The palate offers great volume with racy acidity, just a slight viscosity and real volume and breadth toward the powerful finish. This is just outstanding. Drink 2014-2030.

This is notably more elegant and aromatically finer with its pure essence of pear, dried flowers and citrus peel influences. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the very finely detailed flavors that exude a discreet minerality onto the dry, clean and almost delicate finish. This lovely and understated effort is not at all dramatic but it charms and seduces with its impeccable sense of harmony and balance. I really like this. Tasted: Jun 15, 2014. Drink: 2019+

Domaine Henri Boillot - Producer Portrait

As Stephen Tanzer outlines in his recent report, Henri Boillot is the first out picking on the Montrachet slopes. The combination of small production and picking early comes from a desire to retain vibrancy and energy in the wines over and above riper styles of Chardonnay found elsewhere in the Cotes de Beaune. This mineral driven “understated” yet “explosive” style ...

Henri Boillot on Burgundy 2018

The Vintage Henri Boillot is widely seen as the top micro-negociant for the production of the Cote d’Or’s finest white wines, including Le Montrachet. He abhors heavy whites therefore expect the style of his white wines to be lean, precise and razor-sharp. His red wine profile however is notably different. Whilst he believes acidity and tension are vital for ...

Nicolas Potel: A Liquid History Lesson

Last week we were blessed with a visit to our offices in London from Burgundian legend Nicolas Potel. Listening to Nicolas recant tales of drinking vintages back to 1865, you realise the wealth of experience he has - from growing up in the footsteps of his father at one of Burgundy’s great wine estates, Pousse d’Or, before branching out into ...

A showcase of Faiveley wines at the Annual Domaine Faiveley Grand Cru lunch

Hosted by winemaker Erwan Faiveley, this was more than a regular tasting with lunch. Held at the two Michelin starred ‘The Square’, chef Phillip Howard devised a menu that beautifully and sympathetically allowed ...
