Domaine Henri Boillot — Purity as a Signature
Based in Meursault, one of the most acclaimed names in the Côte de Beaune, producing wines of exceptional precision, tension, and crystalline purity that reveal Burgundy’s finest terroirs.
A Pure, Taut Style Shaped by a Family Legacy
Located in Meursault and led since the 2000s by Henri Boillot, the domaine has earned a place among the elite producers of the Côte de Beaune. The estate focuses on top parcels in Puligny-Montrachet, Meursault, Volnay and Pommard, crafting wines of striking purity. Alongside its domaine holdings, a highly selective négoce operation extends this commitment to excellence. Today, Guillaume Boillot continues and refines this house style, built on rigor and elegance.
Terroir & Philosophy
- Manual harvesting and meticulous sorting
- Parcel-based vinifications for terroir transparency
- Measured new oak use and long ageing on fine lees
- Minimal intervention to preserve purity and tension
The white wines are saline, vibrant, and crystalline, while the reds express the finesse and depth typical of Volnay, Pommard, and Savigny-lès-Beaune.
