Burgundy Mitch's bottle we shared in Mexico. With my luck after his good previous reviews this one was Poxed. There was a bit of a comeback after a few hrs but not enough to really clean it out which is a shame as it seemed that there was good underlying material in here. The bottle of Puligny Perriers 2005 from same producer that I brought to the vacation was TCA infested. Two strikes for Boillot 2005's 1ers -ouch.

After skiing A Basin with Dan and Ken. For all the 2005 White detractors, here is a perfect bottle to argue back. Ripe yet taut acidity to balance and this walks that perfect tight rope with full rich flavor, perfect Meursault typicity, yet not a flabby or fat bit to this beauty. Better after an hour, loosened up, and a decant wouldn't hurt a thing. Not i hint of premox. Very pleased to have a couple more and H.Boillot whites never fail to impress.

Delicious. Fresh, clean, not premoxed, nice, sweet but balanced Meursault fruit. Oppulant and viscous, ripeness is not a flaw! A lovely showing, excellent length on the finish.

Whoa. Deep and dark. Minerals. A floral note. Feels like drinking very complex rocks. Yum. More, please.
