Goedhuis, December 2022
A lower lying Premier Cru in Puligny with a combination of clay and rocky, stony soil structure. This wine always has a degree of boldness. A very special cuvée this year. Lemon sherbet and lime, the early grace in the palate is supported by a striking tensile chalky depth, which builds to give breadth, complexity and length.

Jasper Morris MW, December 2022, Score: 92
Pale lemon and lime. There is a graceful volume of fruit on the nose, consistent with the vintage. Nothing forced and while the volume of fruit is less than in recent vintages, the style is fine and the length is there. Just a little flesh alongside the oak at the finish, though the wood gives a lightly biscuity touch. Drink from 2026-2030.
Producer
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.
