Consisting of roughly equal parts Clos du Cromin, Chevalieres, Narvaux, and Tillet, Boillot's 2006 Meursault smells of fresh apricot, lime, iris, almond, and hazelnut. With flattering creaminess and an uncanny sense of poise brought about by refreshing acidity and a sense of lift, this finishes long on chalk, citrus rind, peach, and lightly-toasted hazelnut. It should be worth following for at least 3-4 years, and since there are 30 barrels, it should not be inaccessible in the marketplace.
Henri Boillot's ambitious and burgeoning negociant arm is made up in large part of many small bottling lots, representing remarkably many of the Cote d-Or's most prestigious crus. -Precision and minerality- are words he offers to explain his intentions even in a vintage as ripe as 2006, and for the most part he walks the accompanying walk, with wines (largely assembled in tank) that showed more generously and expressively than did Boillot's estate wines on the same day.
