✨ Technical Specifications
Domaine Louis Boillot, though widely celebrated for its exceptional collection of old-vine red Burgundies, applies the same meticulous precision to its white wines. This Bourgogne Blanc is crafted from Chardonnay vines grown on clay-limestone soils, often situated near the prestigious borders of Meursault. Boillot's low-intervention philosophy shines through in the cellar, where gentle pressing, indigenous yeast fermentation, and careful aging in French oak barrels with minimal new oak yield a white Burgundy of remarkable purity. The wine beautifully balances the natural richness of the grape with a vibrant, mineral-driven tension, reflecting the storied heritage of the Boillot family and their commitment to expressing the true voice of the terroir.
🍾 About the Producer
Domaine Louis Boillot was established in the early 2000s when vigneron Louis Boillot, continuing a multi-generational family winemaking legacy originally rooted in Volnay, established his operations in Chambolle-Musigny alongside his partner, acclaimed winemaker Ghislaine Barthod. The domaine commands an enviable collection of exceptionally old vines spanning both the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, encompassing prestigious parcels in Chambolle-Musigny, Gevrey-Chambertin, Volnay, and Pommard. Employing meticulous vineyard management and non-interventionist cellar practices, Boillot focuses on gentle extraction and balanced oak maturation to let each distinct terroir shine. The resulting Pinot Noir and Chardonnay bottlings are renowned for their aromatic purity, velvety textures, and quintessential Burgundian finesse.
