Description
history of Domaine Henri Boillot and their Puligny-Montrachet
Domaine Henri Boillot, located in Meursault, Burgundy, is a prestigious family estate that has been producing high-quality wines from the Côte de Beaune since 1885. Under the leadership of Henri and his son Guillaume, they craft wines true to the terroir, with a particular focus on Chardonnay. In addition to Meursault, the estate has plots in Puligny-Montrachet, where Henri further develops his expertise in refined white wines.
location and terroir of Puligny-Montrachet
The vineyards are situated on the famous chalky slopes of Puligny-Montrachet, overlooking the valley and with optimal southwest exposure. The soil consists of fine limestone and marl, ideal for Chardonnay with depth and minerality. Burgundy's maritime climate creates temperature variation with warmer days and cooler nights, contributing to a balance between fruit and freshness.
vinification and wood use of the 2023 Puligny‑Montrachet
The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet is made from 100% Chardonnay, hand-picked and rigorously selected. Fermentation takes place in French oak barrels, approximately 30% of which are new, for twelve months. The wine is then aged on fine lees with regular bâtonnage, which strengthens the structure and creates roundness without overpowering the terroir.
characteristics of the 2023 harvest year
2023 in Burgundy is characterized by a balanced growing season. A mild winter with rain in the spring followed by a sunny summer with mild heat waves, allowing the grapes to ripen gradually. The result is a Puligny-Montrachet with fresh acidity, ripe white fruit, and beautiful minerality.
color, smell and taste profile
In the glass, the wine appears a light straw-yellow, transparent hue. The nose reveals aromas of green apple, white peach, citrus blossom, almond, and a hint of granite. On the palate, it is taut and clean, with precise acidity, mineral tension, and a finely developed texture. The finish is elegant, lingering, and impeccably balanced.
storage potential and serving tips
This wine is ready to drink, but will develop optimally over 5–8 years. Serve at 10–12°C. A brief aeration enhances the fruit and aroma expression, while perfectly preserving the acidity.
