Boisset Jean-Claude

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois

By billn on January 25, 2011

From one-hundred year-old vines There’s a chocolate width to the nose. Lithe in the mouth, perhaps a little CO2. Linear then a big burst of flavour – lovely.

From a mix of 228 and 450L barrels. A little oak on the nose. Not really fat, plenty of minerality, savoury flavour and some muscle. Intense and linear. Will be super.

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Nuits St.Georges Les Charbonnières

Made with fifty percent whole clusters. The nose has good width and complexity. Full in the mouth, more depth, concentration and intensity than the Gevrey. Yet with all this extra structure there is also balance – well done!

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Pommard Les Vaumuriens

The nose has width and an engaging prettiness. Tannin and good acidity make an excellent foil for the very good mid-palate flavour.

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Chambolle-Musigny

Good colour. Full aromas. In the mouth, despite decent concentration, this seems very tight. Just a little tannin and pretty fruit before the finish.

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Beaune Les Grèves

By billn on January 25, 2011

Eighty percent new oak. The aromas need coaxing from the glass; no oak just silky dark fruit. Velvet textuire and very concentrated – this is one big hill of flavour that decays oh-so slowly. Superb!
