Jean-Marc Boillot
About Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot
Jean-Marc Boillot is one of the most prominent producers in the white Burgundy ‘mecca’ of Puligny-Montrachet. Coming from the prestigious Boillot family, Jean-Marc worked at Olivier Leflaive as the winemaker for five years before creating his own estate in 1985. Boillot inherited most of the vineyards he farms today from his grandfathers, Henri Boillot and Etienne Sauzet (maternal); the pedigree at this estate is therefore unrivalled!
Holding some of the best terroirs in Puligny-Montrachet, Boillot stands alongside current greats like Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey and Arnaud Ente. His Chardonnays are sensational, but unlike some of his peers still remarkably affordable. Today, with the assistance of his children (Lydie and Benjamin) J.M. Boillot crafts ten whites across Côte de Beaune, seven in Puligny-Montrachet.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93)82% down in production I am told, meaning just 1 x 350 litre barrel, a new one. Pale lemon with a light green tint. Quite a concentration on the bouquet, fruit and oak integrated. Excellent tension behind, the fruit being concentrated enough to stand up to the oak, and the finish shows significant promise. This will come out well – if you can find any! Drink from 2026-2032. Tasted: November 2022 |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92)Very pale colour. Pure white fruit, not quite so characterful, a little more flesh behind, but showing also the sense of fragility which I often find in Combettes these days. The fruit does not persist quite so well at the back as the best of the Jean-Marc Boillot 1ers Crus. Drink from 2028-2034. Tasted Oct 2024. |

Vinous (91)Palish bright yellow. Ripe yellow peach on the nose, along with more exotic suggestions and a touch of reduction. Smooth, spicy and concentrated but at the same time taut and precise in spite of its impression of sucrosité. Expands in the mouth, finishing tactile, dusty and long. This has the balance to repay cellaring. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93)Pale lemon and lime. The 20222 Les Referts has notably more density than the Garenne, a touch of salt on the citrus at the back of the palate, with generous yellow plum fruit in between. Good length. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted: October 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93)Pale lemon and lime. The Referts has immediately more bouquet than Garenne, a fresh white orchard fruit. This builds steadily on the palate, with considerable distinction, excellent energy, and fresh acidity. Stylish and long. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted Oct 2024. |
