 Tasted by VeronicaXu on 6/14/2015 & rated 88 points: Classic Burgundy. Medium intensity. Good acidity, with touch of minerality. Citrus and apple. (2258 views)
 Tasted by FransS on 4/11/2009 & rated 91 points: Jean-Marc Boillot is an artist. His 2006 Montagny 1er Cru is simply perfect; not only for the standard of montagny wines.
You can consider this simple montagny 1er cru as a really good top burgundy. The perfect and modest use of wood and
the slightly smokeyness in the aftertaste, but above all freshness combined with elegance and persistance show his skills.
Drink now and next year. (4420 views)
 Tasted by winetennis on 1/19/2009 & rated 90 points: Extremely aromatic with floral and citrus; light-moderate yellow color. Little or no oak and light body. Great balance of citrus and fruit, but not bold enough for the roasted chicken meal. Compared with a classic CA oaked Chard and was amazed. This has darker color, WAY more nose, and fruitier and acidic taste. (4903 views)
 Tasted by bderaad@gmail.com on 6/28/2008: Fresh on the nose with floral hints. Very refreshing wine with hardly any oak (thank you) and nice finish. Even better when it opened up more and drank it the next day. Rate 90 points. (4985 views)
 Tasted by scott davis on 4/22/2008 & rated 86 points: Hay and grapefruit on the nose, with flowers and citrus fruit on the palate. Little noticeable oak, and were it not for the weight and slightly oily complexion, this might be mistaken for a Cali SB. Decent. (4848 views)
 Tasted by bknysak on 12/6/2007 & rated 88 points: Very fresh, with hints of green in the glass. Extremely floral, with notes of fennel, pear syrup, and spice. Not showing much oak influence at all; tame acidity. While not complex, a very refreshing style of wine without excess cosmetic treatments. (3070 views)

Burgundy-Report (7/1/2008)
(Boillot Jean-Marc Montagny 1er Cru) Medium-pale yellow. Starts a little spritzy on the nose, but very slowly loses the sherbet note to deliver nice subtle oak and plenty of ripe pear fruit. Good balance with faintly lingering acidity. The flavours are lingering, if just a little saccharin. Always a reasonable value wine.

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
