 Tasted by hajoha on 8/11/2022 & rated 92 points: Drikker meget bra nå.
Juicy og fleshy vin som både har fløyel og struktur.
Skikkelig crowdpleaser som ofte 09 er.
Meget godt kjøp. (979 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 9/21/2020 & rated 90 points: A mature colour, mid-red/brick. The fruit has evolved and there is now a touch of beetroot. Medium weight, well balanced and still quite sturdy. À point now. (1289 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 6/15/2020 & rated 91 points: A deep colour; quite full, black-fruited, meaty and savoury, a true Pommard with plenty of stuffing. A very attractive wine for current drinking. (1288 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 3/13/2019 & rated 89 points: Quite a dark hue; a wine of some substance, and a little burly, with quite full fruit, good balance and reasonable length. Drinking well, but no hurry. (1619 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 3/19/2018 & rated 90 points: This has quite a deep colour and a full, meaty palate, with dark fruit flavours and savoury notes. Drinking well now, but with plenty in reserve. (1995 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 1/4/2018 & rated 89 points: A fairly dark colour; plum and black cherry on the palate, which is quite full, and burly rather than refined. There is some well covered tannin, but the fruit is quite open and forward, so this is attractive now. It should, however, develop further over 3 to 5 years. (1501 views)
 Tasted by bacchusnyon on 12/16/2017: interestingly not nearly as nice as his 2008 at this point. Tried side by side. (980 views)
 Tasted by Paul D on 5/15/2015 & rated 90 points: At the Sun Inn Dedham, £60. Slightly sulphury at first, soon blowing off, then dark, smoky plum and blackcurrant fruit, quite aromatic, touch of vanilla, medium/full bodied, some spice, fine tannins, surprisingly fresh acids, good length harmonious finish. Well balanced and already drinking well. (2477 views)
 Tasted by jsums on 8/5/2014 & rated 91 points: Lighter ruby color with clear rim. Nose: red/black cherry, redcurrant, and grilled red plum with accents of mulling spices, cardamon, licorice, sandalwood, black tea, and hot rocks. Medium/lighter body on the palate: redcurrant, red cherry, and red plum framed by cardamon, star anise, cinnamon, mace, pink peppercorn, and crushed rock. Medium+ acidity. Moderate tannins. Lingering wood spices, redcurrant skin, cardamon, and crushed rock on the long finish. Expressive and outgoing, but with a coiled core of serious structure. Drink over the next 4-6 years. (2568 views)
 Tasted by renatodug on 4/25/2013 & rated 90 points: Robe grenat, nez agréable de fruits et de fleurs. En bouche, très équilibré, fin, structuré. Une légère amertume. Remarquable de fraicheur dans une année solaire (2796 views)
 Tasted by zscheiner on 7/7/2012 & rated 91 points: 2009 Pommards (Vin Vino Wine, Palo Alto, CA): Pretty ripe raspberry nose. Medium to full bodied with medium acidity. Mix of ripe and tart blackberry and black cherry fruit. Minerals and light tannin. Great intensity and weight. Drinking well now but seems likely to improve. (3936 views)
 Tasted by Tavastgatan on 6/12/2011 & rated 90 points: My first real bottle of red 2009 burgundy. This is wide open with lovely, spicy fruit on the nose. The palate is full of sappy, ripe fruit, backed up with just about the right amount of acidity and tannins. This is a very promising start in the vintage.
Day two: A little less of everything, but stands up quite well. (3700 views)
 Tasted by rjonwine@gmail.com on 5/14/2011 & rated 90 points: 2009 Red Burgundies: Thibault Liger-Belair, Gouges, J.M. Boillot, Matrot, Mongeard-Mugneret (Vin Vino Wine, Palo Alto, California): Dark ruby color; sous bois, green herb nose; tight, tart red fruit, tart cranberry, mineral, green herb palate; needs 2 years and should go 8-plus; medium finish 90+ points (from 70-yr-old vines) (2669 views)
 Tasted by SanFranSoxFan04 on 5/14/2011 & rated 88 points: 2009 Red Burgundies - Pre-Arrival 1:30pm Group (Vin, Vino, Wine Palo Alto CA): not getting much in the aromatic department. Oak, strong tannins, not a fan. (3286 views)

Jean-Marc Boillot Producer Website

En 1998, le domaine s’est étendu dans le Languedoc-Roussillon, où il produit une gamme de Vins de Pays d’Oc. Le Domaine est situé en zone d’appellations Pic Saint Loup, Coteau du Languedoc entre la Mer Méditerranée et les Cévennes.
Le vignoble est inséré dans un paysage de falaises calcaires et de garrigues.
Les sols sont argilo-calcaires, caillouteux, filtrants. Les écarts de températures diurnes et nocturnes favorisent l’élaboration de vins d’une grande finesse.

Pinot Noir

Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.


Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.

Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.

The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.

Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.

In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.

With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.

Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
