henri boillot batard montrachet 2021
Reference: 4891Stock: 1 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
aromas of clear honey, sweet orchard fruit and white flowers preface boillot's 2021 bâtard-montrachet grand cru, a full-bodied, ample and satiny wine with racy acids and a broad, expansive profile, concluding with a long, saline finish. like many producers, guillaume boillot opted to acquire no new barrels in 2021, but he tells me that he acquired much less in 2022 too. the vintage, therefore, may prove to make something of a stylistic inflection point for this estate and maison, which appears to be shifting in the direction of a more chiseled, understated style than the rather nutty, toasty aesthetic for which it has long been known. of course, the henri boillot brand has undergone transformations in the past too: the original henri boillot and his son jean were especially celebrated red wine makers in volnay; it was jean's son, henri, who launched a négociant label in 1995 and became celebrated for his white wines. today, guillaume boillot has expanded the family's domaine holdings and concentrated his négociant operations, and he is now making as much a mark on the style of the boillot whites as he already has on the style of the family's reds.
