  Warm, low acid, mellow fruit, quite oaky. Nice, but lacking energy.

  Drank at the Tam-O-Shanter. Very dark ruby with oak, baked plums, and forest floor on the nose. Medium bodied, with some nice depth and pronounced cooked plum, assorted red fruits, oak, and distant tobacco. Soft tannins, with a touch of acidity gave this a very nice rounded fluffy mouthfeel. Had alongside an 06' Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru by Francois Bertheau and in comparison the oak really stood out on the Boillot. Over time, it became integrated a bit more though, and it was quite enjoyable. Bertheau still won this round by unanimous decision.

  Light garnet colored.
  The aroma is a subtle reflection of a wonderful north Indian dish.
  The flavor has a little richness, a little sweetness, and a little astringency. It’s an unlikely combination that creates a good mouth feel.
  The finish is persistent and good.
  Drink or Hold
