Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, December 1, 2021 - The more recent vintages of Henri Boillot pinots (currently crafted by Boillot Jr.) really have a strikingly suave as well as a beautifully racy comportment, with a saturating texture and viscosity that is keenly framed in a nice bead of acidity. The spice elements play well with the perfectly ripe red berry fruit. There is Grand Cru intensity that doesn’t overstep the overall cadence of the delivery. This can go the distance, but it is so enticing now (with a bit of air) that it’ll be difficult not to start playing around with these in the nearer term.

This was an interesting contrast to the 2009 Jerome Chezeaux Clos Vougeot, which was stylistically a bit less flashy and showed a lither profile.
