Boisset Jean-Claude

2005 Boisset Jean-Claude Latricières-Chambertin

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

Deep aromas edged with a little dark oak. Some spritz, linear and perhaps not as fat as some but linear and muscular and shows excellent length.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Chambolle-Musigny

A blend of 4 plots which will account for 3,000 bottles. An understaedly fragrent nose. In the mouth it’s a little rounder and has similar concentration to the Morey, but it’s much less complex. Lovely

The nose is not so deep, but offers a super and complex width of dried fruit notes. Wide in the mouth too, showing an understated concentration. The balance is impeccable such that it’s not so easy to comment on individual components – but the length is super. A fine bottle.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Chambolle-Musigny Les Chardannes

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

This a villages lieu-dit that I’ve never seen explicitly on a label before. The vineyard is lower down the slope from Bonnes-Mares, and touches on the villages portion of Les Beaux Bruns. The nose is quite ‘big’, wide and interesting. The well-textured palate has a sneaky width and length. Clearly a structural step-up from the last wine with plenty more tannin – but it’s well-enough packaged. This is very nice.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Pommard Les Vaumuriens

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

Fine depth on the nose and it’s just a little wilder than than the previous Chambolle. Full-bodied and tannic. Does exactly what it says on the label – sturdy, burly Pommard – but no hard edges. Very good.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Hautes Côtes de Nuits Villages

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

From 40 year-old chardonnay vines in Comblanchien, raised in 20% new oak. The nose is just a little reticent and diffuse. In the mouth it’s a narrow entry which slowly opens and provides lots of late arriving intensity – I like the personality here.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Marsannay Blanc

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

50 year-old vines in the south of the appellation, raised in 20% new oak. The nose is wide and high-toned with an underscore of pineapple. Wow – explodes in the mouth! It’s not amazingly long, but it’s very attractive and shows excellent value.

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

Four barrels from 2 parcels mainly just under Les Vergelesses. Rich and concentrated fruit on the nose. In the mouth it’s nicely concentrated, showing plenty of forward fruit and a lingering finish

2006 Boisset Jean-Claude Meursault Les Limozin

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

From under Les Genevrières. The nose is reasonably precise, though not quite the focus of the St.Aubin but is quite fine. Lovely, balanced and fresh. Concentrated with a lingering finish.
