“100% Chardonnay from 4 different vineyard sites. Limestone soils contribute freshness, moderate acidity, and minerality. Stone fruit flavors of white peach, apricot, and green apple, integrated with subtle oak undertones, medium-bodied with a crisp, creamy finish. An enchanting wine from this charming 2023 vintage.” — Debra, Wine Buyer

Clear and brilliant with a silver luster and green reflections. The bouquet offers a range of delicate and generous fruits — white peach, apricot, green apple, and floral overtones. On the palate, a creamy texture with beautiful balance between refreshing sweet fruit and juicy, mouthwatering acidity. A wine to enjoy immediately.

Jean-Marc Boillot was one of the younger generation in Burgundy who was determined to improve his family’s wines. In 1984, after vinifying 13 vintages at the family’s domaine, Henri Boillot, Jean-Marc walked out in protest, intent on producing highly concentrated, rich, and ripe wines. He became the winemaker for Olivier Leflaive for the next four years and at the same time produced wines from 5-acres of vineyards, bottled under his own label. The wines impressed Boillot’s grandfather, who bequest half his vineyard to Jean-Marc. Boillot runs his domaine from his grandfather Henri Boillot’s house and cellars in the village of Pommard. Jean-Marc’s maternal grandfather was the late Etienne Sauzet, from whom he also inherited exceptional vineyards.
