Loads of sulfur and drive and energy. A blast of gunpowder, then lemon and a long Technicolor finish with great acidity. Years ahead

Mar 17th, 2023Not sure if the fruit is a bit underripe or it’s just that this big wine is too tight and undeveloped. Some Corton steeliness, lemon and lime citrus, a bit of finishing bitterness are all present, wrapped in acidity that sticks out a bit. Give it lots of time.

1 person found it helpfulJun 8th, 2020young but wanted to try since the wife ordered white burgundy and Boillot is occasionally premoxed. Not this bottle. Started out quiet, took a little time to unfurl and then: wow. Really great soft layered texture, like drinking mercury. Very intense and concentrated citrus and minerals, steely like CC should be, acid that tightens up the whole package and drives it like a laser into and through the palate. Then it just fans out and hits every nook and cranny. Fireworks! Super wine.
