Tasting notes
Henri Boillot’s 2024 Meursault Village is drawn entirely from domaine-owned parcels on the coteau (Les Petits Charrons, Chevalières, Casse Têtes, Luraule and Les Pelles and covering 1.5 hectares) though yields were down by 40% due to rain and colulure during the flowering early June. The bouquet is lifted and expressive, mingling pear, orange oil and white flowers with hints of toasted nuts and delicate florals. On the palate, it combines Boillot’s trademark precision with a softer, more seductive texture, offering layers of ripe peach and citrus framed by tangy acidity and a finely etched mineral tension. Taut, vibrant and beautifully balanced, it concludes with a youthfully austere, saline finish that lingers with energy. A classic Meursault at its most refined.

Quite a full yellow. A firm bouquet, plenty of fruit but not the rounded style of old-fashioned Meursault. Fills out more on the palate, with greengage and citrus, lime and grapefruit. The usual Boillot intensity and length.
