From a tiny 0.40 hectare plot of 70 year old vines on the chalky soils of Monts Damnes this is supposed to represent the pinnacle of the Boulay’s bottlings, usually it does. This year it goes toe to toe with the La Cote. Honestly, only time will tell which of them will eventually take home the meat tray, but for now I think it’s a toss of the coin.
Here there is an inescapable muscularity to the wine. It’s almost brawny and chewy. The extract is off the hook and it seems like its all that stands between your palate and a veritable onslaught of intensity and flavour. Hugely long and wildly intense, this is really quite something and has a long, glorious future ahead of it. Like the La Cote, these are Grand Cru quality wines that unerringly articulate their terroir. Exceptional wine. ROSCOE
