Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 86.3 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 3 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Kim Gerner on 10/29/2023 & rated 75 points: Bourgogne visit 29/10-1/11-2023: Past its best a long ago. Almost all aromas and flavours disappeared. A very little dried fruit left. (263 views)
 Tasted by guitarguy on 12/26/2012 & rated 92 points: This was lively, tart and fresh despite its age. Just a little caramel in the otherwise green/yellow color, the nose leapt from the glass with oak, vanilla butterscotch notes. Crabapple, grass and lemon-lime flavors. The oak becomes more apparent as it warms as does a butterscotch roundness to balance the acidity. Butterscotch on a longish finish. (2524 views)
 Tasted by JesperR on 1/3/2011 & rated 92 points: Light straw-golden, quite pale. Somewhat shy at first. Nose with dusty lemons and plenty minerals. Medium concentration, slim and linear with long aftertaste. This is very lovely, though not quite up to 1998, 2000 and 2002 standards. May last for quite some years to come, but not sure if it will improve considerably. (2997 views)

J.M. Boillot

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.

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
