Domaine Henri Boillot
Clos de la Mouchère Monopole Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay



Medium gold, darker than an 06 white burg next to it. Very quiet nose. Not giving up much, even with hours of air. Maybe some citrus, some funk. Faint acidity. But hard to pick up. Something was just off with this bottle… didn’t have notes of POX, was a little musty but not corked. Still drinkable and going to just chalk it up as “off”.

Very reduced and punchy. Matchsticks, lemon zest, oily intense citrus fruit. Pure puligny lean punch. A long time ahead but this is fantastic

This is great stuff. Not touching the rest of my splits for a few years.

As usual, a really lovely wine. Clarity and intensity with lemon, slate and a bracing, electric acidity. This has years ahead but is pretty thrilling now

Lime, slate. Floral notes, we’d stone at the front. Good balance and a healthy spine of acidity. As always, excellent

Corked. Only just, but it’s knocked the flavors right out of shape. Bah!

Fresh and bright in the nose with sweetness, hints of peach, limestone. Very precise and pretty. More floral and less flinty than done others I’ve had. Great stuff

A pretty, expressive nose. Lime, rock pools, white flowers. On the palate this is vivacious and punchy, with just right ripeness of fruit, loads of lean minerality and a great long finish. Not into secondary stages yet but this is in a great place for a young white burg.

Very young, but packed with life. Lemon curd, steeliness, bright vivid acid. Real heft and quality. Wait a bit though
