Dom Henri Boillot Les Caillerets Premier Cru Volnay 2016 Red Wine 75cLBy Winebuyers

Domaine Henri Boillot is a prestigious family-run estate based in Meursault, best known for its exceptional white Burgundies from Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault, but also producing top-tier red wines from the Côte de Beaune, including Volnay. Henri Boillot, who took over the domaine in the late 1990s, has earned a reputation for precision, elegance, and intensity across both whites and reds. His Volnay wines are crafted from prime vineyard parcels, often from older vines, and showcase the appellation’s hallmark finesse, floral aromatics, and silky tannins. In the cellar, Boillot uses a careful balance of new oak (typically around 30–50% for reds), minimal intervention, and a focus on purity and terroir expression. The Caillerets vineyard is renowned for its limestone-rich soils, which contribute to the wine's finesse and aromatic complexity. Henri Boillot, now assisted by his son Guillaume, employs meticulous, sustainable viticulture practices, including careful pruning and harvesting to ensure the best possible grapes. The result is a wine that is both elegant and full-bodied, with a rich, complex flavor profile that is sure to please even the most discerning palate. This wine is suitable for both men and women to enjoy.
