Goedhuis, November 2016
Geographically and stylistically between Les Referts and Champ Canet, this lies right in that sweet spot of the mid-slope. It has hints of orange blossom, Puligny drive, and generous fruit on the palate. The Boillots’ 3ha parcel gives a very complete representation of this climat.

Stephen Tanzer, Sept 2017
The nose conveys an almost dried-fruit ripeness to the aromas of pineapple, grapefruit, flowers and musky herbs. Rich, plush and silky, with its almost glyceral texture given shape by harmonious acidity. Consistent from start to very long, slightly aggressive finish. This distinctly chewy wine will need time in bottle. The crop level here was a near-normal 48 hectoliters per hectare. -- Stephen Tanzer (91-93) Stephen Tanzer Drink Dates NA

Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot
Jean-Marc and his children Lydie and Benjamin consistently make some of the most appealing and forward drinking wines from their significant holdings across Burgundy. Their range of Puligny Montrachet premiers crus shows impressive individual distinction. Jean-Marc’s family has a long and distinguished history in Burgundy. His grandfather was Etienne Sauzet, from whom he inherited vineyards in the early 1990s. He spent his early career working for the family domaine, Henri Boillot, before making the wine at Domaine Olivier Leflaive. In the 1980s he began making wine from his own vineyards which were significantly expanded with his Sauzet inheritance of an outstanding array of Puligny premier cru sites. The family have exported their uncomplicated but precise winemaking philosophy further south to the Côte Chalonnaise, and more recently, Mâcon.Region
Puligny Montrachet
Puligny Montrachet is known as the most delicate of the white wine appellations south of Beaune.Its wines tend to be linear and mineral offering delicate floral and orchard fruit aromatics. Its village and premier cru vineyard area total slightly over 200 hectares but almost half of them are premier cru making them one of the highest proportions of quality vineyards in the Côte de Beaune. Several grand cru vineyards are present, the most notable being Le Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachetwhich it shares with neighbouring Chassagne, but it does have the extraordinary Chevalier Montrachet and the tiny Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet all to itself. There are a handful of red wines grown, but they tend to be quite light and need to be drunk in their youth.
