Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
The 2019 Bourgogne Blanc Les Herbeux derives from an early-ripening site, and the result is a fleshier, richer wine, evocative of pear, confit citrus and toasted almonds. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, it's more gourmand in style.
About the Producer
One of the finest small producers in the village of Meursault, the Boissons have been vignerons in Meursault for more than two centuries, and the wines today are as fine as they have ever been in the long and illustrious family history. The family holdings of what was long referred to as Domaine Boisson-Vadot are now collaboratively produced and bottled under the Pierre Boisson and Anne Boisson labels at the family’s cellars in Meursault. The trusty formula of a high percentage of old vines, combined with careful vineyard work to nurture the greatest potential of each vintage, and patient winemaking in the cellars allows the underlying terroirs of each site to take the spotlight in the finished wines.
