Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot 1er Cru Volnay-Pitures 2016 (Vinous: 89 points)

Domaine J.M. Boillot 是一家位於Pommard的布爾岡酒莊，但它有很多 Cote de Beaune 產區的葡萄酒，並於 1998 年擴展到南法Languedoc。
創始人 Jean Marc Boillot 從 1971 年到 1984 年，與他的祖父 Henri Boillot在家族酒莊一起工作。後來家庭的分歧促使他離開，並成為 Olivier Leflaive 的釀酒師。 1989 年，當他的祖父退休並讓他租用位於 Volnay、Pommard 和 Meursault 的葡萄園時，他創立了自己的酒莊。 1993 年Jean-Marc 從他的外祖父──已故的 Étienne Sauzet ，繼承了更多位於 Chassagne-Montrachet、Puligny-Montrachet 和 Bâtard-Montrachet 的葡萄園。
現在他和女兒Lydie及女婿François 一起工作。他們對於葡萄園內超過40年的老藤都懷着無比的熱情。

品酒筆記：
(Vinous' rating: 89 points)
（位於這個多岩石的山坡上，產量為每公頃 4700升，它是這酒莊唯一躲過四月下旬霜凍的Pinot Noir葡萄園）：明亮中等的紅色。香氣沉穩而複雜，包括紅果、香料、莫加咖啡和礦物，被玫瑰花瓣的幽香所提升。 2016 年份霜凍嚴重，在這情況下這酒風格明顯較輕鬆，寬廣而微妙的甜味，帶有一些涼爽的薄荷元素。 尾端濃度適中，變得有點草藥味和酸味，單寧給人高密度的感覺。

Domaine J.M. Boillot is a Burgundy wine estate which is based in Pommard but it makes a large range of wine with appellations in Cote de Beaune and expanded to Languedoc in 1998.
The founder, Jean Marc Boillot, worked with his grandfather, Henri Boillot, at the family's domaine from 1971 to 1984. Then a family disagreement prompted him to leave and become a winemaker for Olivier Leflaive. In 1989 he created the Domaine when his grandfather retired and rent his vines holdings in Volnay, Pommard, and Meursault. Later in 1993, Jean-Marc inherited more vineyards in Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet and Bâtard-Montrachet from his maternal grandfather, the late Étienne Sauzet.
Now he works with Lydie his daughter, and François his son-in-law. They all respect the vines which are over 40 years old with greatest affection.

Tasting Notes:
(Vinous' rating: 89 points)
(production on this rocky hillside site was 47 hectoliters per hectare, as this was the estate's only Pinot Noir vineyard that escaped the late-April frost): Bright medium red. Sedate, complex aromas of red fruits, spices, mocha and minerals, lifted by a whiff of rose petal. A distinctly more relaxed style than the severely frosted 2016s here, broad and subtly sweet but with some cooling menthol and mint elements. Ultimately a wine of moderate concentration but good breadth. Turns a bit herbal, even tart, on the finish, with the tannins coming across as a bit dusty.
