August 27, 2023 - So much longevity left on this wine. The structure, acid, and alcohol were perfectly in balance. Turned earth and mushrooms wound harmoniously with raspberries and cherry.

August 7, 2020 - Really delightful wine. Resembles an elegant high fashion model rather than a voluptuous Playboy centerfold.

June 4, 2018 - Similar impressions to my prior note, but showing even better now, quite magnificently so. These ancient vines have managed to wring an intensity out of this vintage that I haven't tasted anywhere else yet. Right out of the gate this has a veneer of piercingly intense black cherry fruit, and then when you poke it the fruit that oozes out is all saucy red fruit with the saturation of a reduction sauce but plenty of fresh wild berry zing. Like my last bottle the non-fruit elements are both gamy and stony, here more strongly on the side of the former, also featuring an almost porcini-like savoriness. Bottle still has CO2 you need to decant or shake away.

January 20, 2018 - Terrific Gevrey. I am starting to think Lucien is the king of the Boillots. Remarkable power for the vintage - this really seems to benefit from that old-vine intensity. Lots of CO2 at first that needs to be shaken out though. Then it features dark red/black fruit that's alternately gamey or stony depending on the food accompaniment (pheasant really brought out the former). Feels very much a Gevrey, in other words.
