  March 10, 2024 - Huge nose of citrus, mixed with almonds, took an hour to open up… Huge concentration of citrus pie, mineral, length of more than 30 sec, I love these aged HB!!

  January 20, 2024 - I deeply appreciate the wines of Henri Boillot and I liked this all the same. Toast, white flowers, limestone and lemon curd clearly defined on the bouquet with peaches, red apples, vanilla and orange cittus on the palate. For the vintage I would expect more ripeness and perhaps even flabbiness at this stage but pleasantly surprised that this was still fresh with good tension, no doubt aided by a good amount of minerality and acidity.

  January 20, 2024 - Pearl of Burgundy gala dinner: Surprisingly fresh and youthful, no signs of premox here. Love such old-school burgundies - a great wine in its own right but overshadowed by the blockbusters that came before.

  October 20, 2023 - Thanks Edward brought this for Paul's hot pot dinner. A ripe white of golden yellow colour, pleasent aroma of honey, white flowers, toast, silky palate, good acidity and long palate. A wonderful wine.
