My first exposure to any of Louis Boillot’s wines was his Pommard at Pierre Gagnaire in Paris, and I have been on the hunt for his wines ever since. This Beaune is extremely floral, full of bright red fruit and has a slight smokiness to it. Reasonably priced for a 1er Cru Burgundy and drinking so well for its age. — 6 years ago
Deep, heady, dizzying nose of strawberry compote, cherry liquer, sandalwood, maybe some eucalyptus, and other exotic woods.
palate also brings damp earth, light rose , and a slight sanguine note. More muscular Than I would have expected out of a volnay. But at the same time precise and fresh with energizing acidity creating a nervy tension. Sensational
I should mention that it needed considerable time. Started off very floral and strawberry but somewhat one dimensional. Several hours later was a different wine

Delicate rose water. This is very lean. Much better with food to counterbalance the acid. I have a few more, and it will be interesting to see how this develops. — 9 years ago

Not at apogee. The length on palate was clearly from noble terroir. A transition vintage for the current Jean Louis Trapet around the time he converted to biodynamic viticulture and began dialing back the oak. And I forgot to mention: $30+/btl at Berkeley Bowl on closeout during the early 2000s. You can barely buy Passetoutgrain for $30/btl these days. — 6 years ago
Perfectly balance with fruits and slight hint of leather — 7 years ago
Citrus, lemon zest, mineral character, matchstick, no overt signs of oak, but a little too reductive for me — 7 years ago
Medium to full bodied, corn chip nose, perfect balance of fruit to acidity and sous bois, develops in a very linear and controlled way across the palate. Big fruit. Great value in Burgundy. — 9 years ago

Double decanted. Notes from 3 hrs open. I am in love with this wine. Stylistically, this is the opposite end of the spectrum from, say, a Louis Latour or Leflaive Corton Charly: this is so vibrant, and lemon drenched mineral, Corton Charlemagne. The nose shows green apple, and lemon curd soaked crushed rock with a very soft nutty note; so intense, I can smell this from a foot away from my glass. On the palate, fantastic dry extract, super-vibrant acid, followed by guava and then lemon and crushed rocks. Excellent weight and a long finish. An acid-head's Corton Charly? Anyway, this is definitely a baby: either needs a very long decant (3hrs at a minimum) or another 3-5 years in bottle. — 5 years ago
