Domaine Henri Boillot Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens 2012
A superb Pommard Les Rugiens from Henri Boillot, one of the most talented winemakers of the Côte de Beaune. A bright ruby colour with black reflections, a nose of black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry) with animal notes and on the palate, a deep and co-centred winewith present and powerful but silky tannins. A nice length with a lot of elegance and freshness and notes of spices on the finish.
Domaine Henri Boillot is located in Meursault and extends over 15 hectares of vines, mainly from the first growths of Savigny-les-Beaune, Beaune, Volnay, Pommard, Meursault and finally Puligny-Montrachet whose estate has a monopoly of 3.92 hectares with the premier cru Clos de la Mouchère.
