Our Score
Lucien Boillot is a special, under-the-radar grower imported by Kermit Lynch. Run by Lucien's son Pierre, Boillot has holdings in both the Cotes de Beaune and the Cotes de Nuits, primarily in Gevrey-Chambertin and Pommard. This cuvee is sourced from a lesser known 1er Cru Vineyard called "Les Croix Noires" ("The Black Crosses"), which sits just below the famed "Rugien" vineyard. Deep, with Pommard "chew" and 2016 structure, this is delicious Pinot Noir, ideally opened after 2022.

Winemaker's Notes
"The Pinots Noirs are harvested in small boxes, in order to preserve the berries. After passing through a sorting table, the grapes are destemmed and then placed in vats for a period of 12 to 20 days. Depending on the vintage, between 1 third and 2 third of the grapes are vinified in whole bunches. After pressing, the wine is aged in barrels for 16 months, 30% of which is new wood, and 3 months in vats, before being bottled by gravity, depending on the lunar calendar. Tasting : Dense, powerful, complex wine with great length in the mouth. To decant in recent vintages."
