Tasting Notes
Les Chevrets sits at the southern end of Volnay, right on the border with Meursault and opposite the Santenots vineyards. Boillot has a substantial 1.5 hectares here, planted to old Pinot Noir vines on clay and limestone soils. It’s a site that gives Volnay with a little more muscle and structure, while retaining the perfume and silky texture the village is known for. Dark cherry and raspberry, florals, earth and spice, with fine tannins and a lovely mineral freshness. There’s some real depth here, but it remains elegant and beautifully composed. Serious Volnay with plenty of life ahead of it. - Chris L
Domaine Henri Boillot is a distinguished family estate in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, with roots reaching back to the early 1900s. Based in Meursault, the domaine was reunified under Henri Boillot’s stewardship in 2005, bringing together family-held parcels under his vision—today he concentrates on crafting pristine white Burgundies, while his son Guillaume, who joined the domaine in the late 2000s, leads the development of the reds.
The estate cultivates carefully selected vineyard parcels with remarkable terroir: premier crus in Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (including the monopole Clos de la Mouchère), as well as holdings in Volnay and Pommard. With a naturally restrained production scale, the domaine focuses on precision, terroir clarity, and elegant expression in its Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs.
Henri’s whites are celebrated for their crystalline purity, mineral tension and layered complexity, while Guillaume’s reds are noted for their finesse, perfume, and refined structure—together presenting a harmonious vision of Côte de Beaune terroir, crafted with generational knowledge and thoughtful precision.
