Boisset Jean-Claude

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Fixin Blanc

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

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 Gevrey-Chambertin Champonets

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Three barrels produced. Medium, medium-plus colour. Forward red fruit aromas with just a hint of reduction in the background. More obvious structure than the Cazetiers but it is well packaged by ripe fruit. A good Gevrey-style finish. This is a good wine (for-sure) but I’d opt for the Cazetiers.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Santenay Beaurepaire Blanc

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Pale colour. I may say such a thing, this has a Puligny-style nose. In the mouth it’s full, fresh, has super minerality and an extra mid-palate dimension to the fruit – wow, frankly outstanding!

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Clos de la Roche

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Medium, medium-plus colour. A good width of aromas – mineral mixing with high tones. Plenty of structure here, and an excellent burst of interest in the mid-palate. Slowly lingering, this is a very good wine.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude St.Aubin Bas Vermarain Blanc

Pale colour. An understated nose of ripe fruit. Super mid-palate dimension and a mouth-watering finish – actually a super finish. Long and very tasty.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Echézeaux

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Vinified in a 600 litre barrel. High tones that mix very well with the red-fruit aromas. Despite plenty of tannin and general structure, this a more a wine of finesse than the Clos de la Roche – it’s very impressive. This clearly needs 2-3 years in the cellar, but I think it is a really good quality effort.

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.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Meursault Charmes

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Pale colour. A wide and impressive nose – precise and fine. An excellent dovetailing of acidity and concentration. Super length and then a small reprise to the flavours too – superb Charmes.

2007 Boisset Jean-Claude Puligny-Montrachet Champs Gains

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

Elevage for the first time in 450 litre casks – and for 18 months. Pale colour. Wide nose though not so deep. Rippling acidity with perfect packaging for the mix of mineral and sweet flavours – it lingers beautifully…
