Domaine Henri Boillot - Meursault 2024
The Domaine Henri Boillot is a major reference in the Côte de Beaune, located in Meursault, where it stands out for a highly precise approach in both white and red wines. Originating from a family deeply rooted in the Burgundy vineyard, Henri Boillot has gradually shaped a domaine recognized for the purity of its expressions and the very accurate reading of the terroirs. The vineyard extends over carefully situated plots in Meursault and neighboring appellations, resting on clay-limestone soils typical of the region. The work in the vineyard is conducted with constant rigor, following a logic of reasoned viticulture, with controlled yields and particular attention paid to the ripeness of the grapes. In the cellar, vinifications are precise, the aging measured, always serving the balance and clarity of the terroir.
The Meursault 2024 is made exclusively from Chardonnay, sourced from different representative plots of the appellation, offering a complete and harmonious vision of Meursault. The 2024 vintage, marked by beautiful freshness and progressive ripening, gives birth to an elegant, taut, and perfectly balanced wine. The vinification aims to preserve the brightness of the fruit and the natural structure of Chardonnay, with careful aging that brings depth without masking the wine's identity. This cuvée stands out for its ability to combine measured richness, aromatic precision, and mineral energy, in a style faithful to the domaine's signature.
On tasting, the wine opens with aromas of fresh white fruits, pear, and apple, accompanied by floral notes and subtle buttery and hazelnut nuances. The palate is ample but perfectly balanced, supported by a beautiful tension that structures the body and lengthens the finish. The whole offers a sensation of purity and elegance, with a persistent, saline, and refined finish. This Meursault will ideally accompany noble fish, crustaceans, poultry in sauce, or delicate gastronomic cuisine. It can also evolve favorably over several years, gaining complexity and depth.
Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay
