Boisset Jean-Claude

2009 Boisset Jean-Claude Nuits St.Georges Les Charbonnières

By billn on January 25, 2011

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.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Fixin Blanc

By billn on April 14, 2010

10% pinot blanc in the mix. There’s a width of tasty fruit here – and some extract too. A ’small wine’ after the Clos Blanc de Vougeot, but a good wine.

2008 Boisset Jean-Claude Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois

By billn on April 14, 2010

Pretty, high-toned aromas of precise dark red fruits. There is grainy tannin but on a relatively low level. Cool, fresh fruit – overall very understated but confident.

Harvested on the same day as the aligoté, reared in 400 litre barrels – Grégory says that his aim is more minerality and less oak. Pale colour, penetrating nose. Direct and mineral with super acidity packaging the sweetness. Super.

The third vintage for this cuvée. Very pale yellow. High tones, very fine yet an extra depth of fruit aroma. Again there’s a beautiful blend of acidity and sweetness. Finally a small savoury element in the finish – super (again!).

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Morey St.Denis Monts Luisants Blanc

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

A wine I bought in quantity with a 2006 label. Pale colour – high-toned and fresh – a single 1 year old barrel was needed for the production of 270 bottles. Very pure, density with balance. Good length. Not as tropical as the 06, but it’s fine and lovely.

90% chardonnay, 10% pinot blanc. Wide and fresh aromas. The pinot blanc seems to provide a little more density. Some baked bread flavour in the mid-palate adds to relatively savoury flavours. Good length – quite nice I would say.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Meursault Les Clous

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Pale colour. Aromatic width and a slightly mineral impression. Super acidity. This has an impressive linearity about it, some minerality and eventually just a little Meursault padding. Impressive.
