Chambolle femininity married to Côte de Beaune forest floor and fruits de sous-bois. Impeccably balanced, lifted and long. Classic mid-slope Volnay. #volnay #louisboillot

A remarkable bottle of wine. Fruit that reminds me more of Vosne but the tension of Volnay. Lots of time but it's in a beautiful spot now that leans more primary

My addiction to Burgundy continues... delicate and floral with great tension and acidity

2005 and still has tons of structure, ripe fruit, and a wonderful sense of place.

Solid Volnay. Nice structure. Intense cherry, cranberry fruit. Long.

Very Pinot like nose, also spices and some “cellar scents” but lots of spices, the profile and palate looks Nebbiolo like with a tight, powerful and dry finish, but also lots of class and elegance, very good 91-92

Nez qui pinote un peu, quelques notes de cave, sous bois, beaucoup d’épices, un profil à l’aveugle presque de Nebbiolo, finale puissante et avec une touche asséchante, belle acidité, un vin puissant mais racé, très bon. 91-92

Monsieur Boillot makes some of the finest Volnays and Pommards we know. This one no exception, medium dark rubi color, nose of flowers and dark cherries, medium length, complex and elegant, with highly civilized tannins. Great stuff !
