Domaine Henri Boillot Bonnes Mares Grand Cru: A Côte de Nuits Icon

The BOILLOT HENRI BONNES MARES ROUGE stands as a benchmark for Grand Cru excellence in the Côte de Nuits. From the highly respected Domaine Henri Boillot, this Pinot Noir is a profound, multi-layered wine. It achieves a rare balance, marrying the inherent power and structure of the Bonnes Mares ‘terres rouges’ with a refined elegance that speaks to its proximity to Chambolle-Musigny. This is a wine for the cellar, promising immense reward for those with patience.

Tasting Notes (Typical Vintage)

• Appearance: Bright ruby red, with impressive clarity and depth.
• Bouquet: A complex and evolving nose that offers floral accents, a touch of spice, and pure notes of red berries (raspberry, cherry) and cherry kernel.
• Palate: The attack is precise, leading to a rich mid-palate. It boasts a fine, silky, and generous texture with well-integrated, delicate tannins. The balance is superb, culminating in a long, energetic, and persistently saline finish.

Pairing & Service

Decant young vintages for two hours and serve at 16°C to allow the wine to fully express its complex bouquet. A true showpiece.

• Recommended Pairings: Classic Beef Wellington, Roasted Grouse or Partridge, Venison Loin, Aged Stilton or Mature Cheddar.
